Give me a call at 573-392-7378 (9-12, 1-4 Mon-Tues central time) to discuss. If possible have the identification number of your AFB.
Regards.
Jon.

Jon, apparently you are The Man when it comes to carbs. My '67 Grand Prix, equipped with Carter AFB, stumbles when coming off of idle and I think its due to the accelerator pump. The squirt of gas comes late and there's evidence of fuel leakage around the accelerator pump housing. Someone told me the AFB accelerator pump bore is prone to wallowing out and are often unrepairable. Thought I'd come to the Mountain for an informed opinion. I just bought this car two weeks ago and the carb is clean and reportedly rebuilt. Runs great once its moving. Should I just ship my entire carb to you for a rebuild or buy the accelerator pump and top gasket and give that a shot? What do you charge for a complete rebuild on an old AFB? THANK YOU sir. Love my GP! Hunter Bachrach in Arizona.
