I have a 69 Le Baron 2 dr. I have had carbarator problems. Any ideas?

Remove the Holley carburetor.  Locate the nearest trash receptacle.  Insert the Holly into the trash receptacle.

No joke.

There are a couple of good options for a new carburetor.  The Edelbrock 1406 will bolt right on and be as close to bulletproof as you can find.  Summit Racing has them -- http://tinyurl.com/qlmod -- as does Jeg's -- http://tinyurl.com/pyqh5.  I've ordered carbs from both companies before and both are good places to do business.

Jeg's also offers a Chrysler throttle lever adapter that makes it a snap to mate the throttle linkage up to the new carb --

You'll be amazed at how much better your Imperial runs with a new carburetor.

Good luck!
