Hey everyone, newish here. I've got a '75 Baja Bronco that's been in the family since '76. The carb has always been troublesome, not sure when the last true rebuild was. It was my grandfather's, then my father's and has been with me for the past 10 years. Unfortunately, I've not been a position to do much in the way of improvements until recently.
Basically, once I get it started (she's been stubborn at that for a while) and warmed up if I throw it in gear she dies. I know one of the jets is clogged and the stock carb needs a rebuild but I'm curious if its worth the effort. That carb has always been a pain and I'm considering going Holley or Edelbrock. Its mostly stock at this point, orig 302 rebuilt in '98 or so, maybe 20k miles on the rebuild. The only major change was the addition of headers and dual exhaust.
So the question is to rebuild or replace?
Thanks!
