    I get that, but honestly i’m getting tired of having to adjust the distributor timing and fiddle with the air-fuel ratio to get it just “right”, else the car would either underpowered, use a lot more fuel, or emission is gonna be off the chart. If you work on your own car then it would be all right, it’s a nightmare for people who fix it for a living. But i do get that, when it works, it works really nice.

        I think my current issue with carburetor is exactly that, i can’t take it apart because everything seized, i can’t get a used one because it’s rare, and i can’t get a new one because all on the market is kinda crap. I guess that’s basically how most reliable thing get phased out.
