The number on the tag of my carb Indicates it is a '68 model AVS, it has
only one adjustment screw that both my expert MOPAR mechanic, and a good
friend (who rebuilt it, and said I really needed new metering rods, but
we can't get any for it) cannot get it to work properly.

=================================

My Dad had a '69 Dodge Coronet w/383.

 

I remember he had a lot of trouble keeping it

running right.  I also remember him talking about

the carb having only one adjustment screw for

both barrels.

 

I know he changed it, but don't know what with.

 

Would it be possible to drill out the factory plugs

like they show in the manuals?  I don't think

it's that hard to do.  I did it on my 84 Caravan.

The manual told me what diameter and where to

drill.  (Of course I plugged the holes back up -NOT!)

 

(Wasn't the same carb as yours of course.)
