Sorry about this guys but got another carb question. I've got a stock 2L (CJ) and my left hand carb has sprung a petrol leak in 2 places. One on the acellerator pump (comes out of the gasket when widdled manually) and one from what looks like the butterfly spindle (seams to dribble out onto the inlet manifold ). So my question is, is it woth repairing them (new seals..so everything stays where it should do..pipes etc) or go for on on these kits below? , also thought about a weber IDF kit but Vexpensive!
