I need help with this carter rbs carburetor! To give some back story into this, one of my friends bought a 1970 Mustang coupe with the 250 I6 about a year ago. Since he is in the military the task of fixing it came to me. I got it running but the idle screw did little to nothing I rebuilt the carb and still no change. So I bought a new rbs carburetor from ebay which had good reviews. I put it on and it would not stay running I had to hold the throttle down while holding the choke open. The choke just tried to stay closed the whole time and the linkage would not flip the choke open. Some of the brass plugs on the carb leaked gas. The previous owner i assume done away with the automatic choke on this mustang. The choke on the old carberator was broke so i had to pour gas into it. Should I put the automatic choke back in service. And if not could I put a manuel choke on it? I'm at a standstill and need all the help I can get ,any and all help is appreciated.
