Have a crack in one of the throttle bodies. Need one to replace the cracked one. See some on ebay but only need the TB replaced.
The crack is next to and propagates to the jet hole causing it to leak fuel.
This may not be the appropriate place for this post but I need it in a hurry. Please let me know what you have and your price.
 
Nobody has a spare carb they would sell? Come on guys help a fellow member
 
Larry - how'd you find the crack? What symptoms? Do you have a picture that shows it?

When I bought the car it had been sitting for 26 years undisturbed and uncovered.
The carb slides were frozen tight and I had to force them out.
I knew I cracked the back side of the slide so I bought Webers. The webers were too hard and expensive to tune.
Decided to try the original carbs. Had a hard time getting them to idle down. So I removed the air filter and found that the crack was leaking fuel.
Anyway, now I need a replacement so I can start driving the car again.

Will try to take a picture later today
