They said it was kind of new. Found out the metering rods had been changed and the jets. I pulled them out and matched them with stock. I called edelbrock and they told me that is a rich mix from stock. I bought the new one from the guy with about 200 miles and it looks great. pulled the metering rods and they match stock. That is why car was running rich. going to put in the new carb
How did this work out for you?
