what year and what kind of carbs ? it will really help if you post has much info in your vehicle registry that way others can see at a glance what you have. often there is someone who can help but only if they know what you have. for frozen jets or anything seized for that matter get a can of Zep 45nc it not cheap but once you use it you'll take every can of wd-40 pb blaster and anything else and toss them in the trash just spray it on don't even need to soak it really wait 5 min tap near it lightly and unscrew it used it on the original screws on my front fender yesterday and the bumper bolts everyone came off without a problem. if you cant find it you can order it online here is a pic so you know what to look for



If you never try to do it You will never be able to do it

Welcome to our madness! We love pictures. And we love to answer your questions, but there are too many options in the way of carburetors. We don't know what you have.

Again welcome, you have come to the right place.

...Yes, welcome aboard! You'll find that your car will serve much better as a fun little conveyance rather than a boat anchor! All the parts are available, priced reasonably, and not that difficult to install.

These LBC's are perfect projects and the pay-off will be well worth the time invested. Overall, they are simple to work on and in the end, actually quite reliable because of their simplicity...the best engineering is the simplest engineering!

Tell us more about your car, and post some pictures too!

Good luck!
