My car suffers from the fuel infectors syndrome. It was born with one of them there 4 bbl fuel mixers on top the motor, then it suffered a slow progression of fuel infection. Poor thing. All in all fuel infection isn't such a bad thing. I accept it for what it is. I miss the days of vapor lock, sticky chokes, ethanol messing with it and other associated problems...........NOT!!!

wonl2 said: I'm looking to rebuild the Quadrajet carb on my 1979 L48. I see so many places to buy the rebuild kits and the prices range from $27 to $75. I want to do this right the first time with a quality kit. Where can I find a rebuild kit that has quality parts? The carb has 60K miles. Will the new rebuild kits allow for the use of 10% ethanol gas. I have been using pure gas. Just wondering.
Thanks for all responses.

Thanks for all responses.

Unfortunately the carb isn't the only thing susceptible to ethanol damage. Any plastic,rubber, or aluminum part can also be damaged as alcohol is a weak acid. Plus you will get better mpg with pure gas.
