    What kind of carburetor and what kind of work does it need? I've been known to fix 1 or few hundred of them.

    carb work

    200 6 cyl engine with holey carb. Runs very rough when cold better when warm but still crappy. Misses and sputters on slow climb like my driveway . Very good compression , electronic ignition , new plugs and wires , fuel pump , filter , Wife says it pings when I get into the gas but I am almost deaf and don't hear it.
    Fell free to call me

    Ric, I'll give you a call Friday when I'm available next.

    I assume you've checked timing on this as well? Pinging, if it is happening, would point to timing being too far advanced. Also, the Carb would need to have the spark control vacuum source. All stuff to check while you're at it.

    The Holley 1 barrel is notorious for having issues due to warping. Actually, most 60 y.o. carburetors are pretty tweaked by now. I've been able to work past some of these issues before, but some I've seen are a too far gone. In these cases you'll need to be prepared for plan "b".

    Will touch base tomorrow.
