[RetroRoo now selling Weber Carb Kits on Ebay Store]

I went to the e-bay store but I was not able to find any Weber kits. I am pretty lost, so I need some help if anybody can steer me in the right direction I would really appreciate it. 

I have an '84 GL and two mechanics told me I need a new carb. I do not know which carb, but they are telling me I need to get it and they will put it on for me. Does anybody know which one I need, and if somebody is still selling it? 

Really appreciate any tips!

Way more expensive to convert to weber.  I don't really consider them an upgrade.  At least not until they've been tuned correct.....which very few are.  You can easily lose gas mileage, develope idle and driveability issues, and fight run-on dieseling.

 

 

The rebuild kit is ~$25 and it's easy to do yourself or pay a shop I charge $75 one hour labor.  No shop should charge much more than that or your getting ripped off.

 

Hitachis are easy.....there is nothing to lose inside except one little ball at the bottom of the accel pump but reassembly is so obvious no way to screw it up really unless you break something...

 

As long as you don't have too much throttle shaft play, your hitachi will be great after a rebuild.  Spend the 25 bucks and do it yourself.  Make sure to remove the emulsion tubes and blow them out that's the biggest issue they have.

I am new to this forum, but I have a rust-free '84 GL that has been to two places in Madison WI who cannot seem to find a new carb. The baby has sat for over a year, so I wanted to check here....and low and behold it seems like you can fix it...correct? Please e-mail me at jofunk@hotmail.com if you are interested. I can get it boxed up and sent over. Or, the second shop was telling me to just buy a new one. Doubt those exist. Looking for some advice & help here if  possible. Thanks!
