Posted July 26, 200717 yr comment_216476 Dang, I get my car on the road again after the new suspension and the new tranny, a day later my carbs go out... Both of them! One doesn't open, and the other the floater that regulates the fuel that comes in, broke. This never ends, oh well. Plenty of good times fixing this thing, but I just want this to end. I hope this is one of the last major repairs. Somehow I doubt that.Cheers!Albert Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/25021-new-carbs/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
July 26, 200717 yr Author comment_216510 I was looking at the MSA carb rebuild kits, they have one for '70-'71, one for '72 and another for '73. My car is a '73 but the carbs are round-tops so the '73 rebuild kit is out of the question. The question is How do I know what carbs I have 70-71 or 72 Carbs? Any help would be appreciated.Thanks,Albert Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/25021-new-carbs/#findComment-216510 Share on other sites More sharing options...
July 26, 200717 yr comment_216516 The round top domes - if they are held down with four screws they are '70-71 carbs. If they are held down with three screws they are '72 carbs.
