Weber carburetor problems

[neumagic]

I have a 79 fj40 with the aftermarket Weber carburetor installed on a 79 FJ 40 and I'm having the typical problems with starting difficulty and roughness at unpredictable times. Any help with modifications, adjustments or replacement options would be greatly appreciated

What weber carb ? 32/36... 38?

Is this a new problem that has arisen?

Is the truck Or carb new to you?

Did you put the weber on or po?

Options:
Fix the issue
Replace with trollhole and hope the issue isn't something else
Replace with oem rebuilt carb and hope the issue isn't something else

Did you check for rust in fuel line?

Did you open the carb and check for trash in there?

PO put on weber and I have had the vehicle for 3 years with ongoing problems related to starting. I will check for trash in carb and use cleaner again before replacing

When did you replace the fuel filter last? Is it a clear filter?

Mechanical fuel pump or electric?

What type of weber 32/36 or 38?

Did you check for rust in fuel line?

The weber has a filter in it... Had you ever cleaned it out?
