Hi, I tried replacing the original Marvel carb which had become very rusty inside from ethanol with a Zenith. The Zenith did't fit with the sediment bowl so it required an extension off the back, then it always let fuel gush out the intake no matter how I adjusted it or rebuilt it. Did I get a lemon?
Anyways I'm looking at other options for a new carburetor, I see the generic dark grey one everywhere but I haven't found much info on how good it is. For the same price I could do a core return on a rebuilt original but I'd rather not have something that was worn out from rust wear, etc. and just cosmetically restored. Or if you think there is a Zenith model which actually performs like its advertised I would be happy to do that. I'm looking for something that will be reliable and if possible built to withstand ethanol, as well fit with the stock fuel bowl and other standard parts.
Thanks.
