Snowman Posted September 28, 2003 Share Posted September 28, 2003 The hitachi carb on my car has some issues (of course it does, it's a hitachi carb). How expensive and difficult is it to rebuild this carburetor? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShawnW Posted September 28, 2003 Share Posted September 28, 2003 Pretty easy. Box it up and send it to Kerry at Roobuilders. Find him via http://www.ccrengines.com. Free plug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RubySuby Posted September 28, 2003 Share Posted September 28, 2003 Your better off getting someone with more experience to do this for you, so if it stuff's up once installed again send it back =) Work out cheaper in the long run.. clint.

NV Zeno Posted September 28, 2003 Share Posted September 28, 2003 I'll second ShawnW and Ruby's recommendation. I have a carb from CCR/Roobuilders on my wagon. It came with a diagram for all those hoses, and Kerry (a great guy) at the other end of the phone if there are any questions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomRhere Posted September 28, 2003 Share Posted September 28, 2003 Ball park figure on what it would cost? May have mine done after the Weber's on the "82 so I can use it on the '86....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowman Posted September 29, 2003 Author Share Posted September 29, 2003 I don't mean sending it off to have it rebuilt. Sorry if I wasn't clear. I want to buy a rebuild kit and do it myself with the assistance of one of my automotive professors at the university. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RallyKeith Posted September 29, 2003 Share Posted September 29, 2003 It's not too bad. I did one with the help of my father. The rebuild kit I got was from Beck Arnley and came with everything I needed. It basically replaces all the internals except the float. I think the only really hard part was setting the float.
