I would like to replace the carburetor in my 64 LeBaron and, using manual information as there is no tag affixed or stamping marks I can see, have determined that all 64's use the Carter AFB. If this is correct, will someone kindly recommend a high quality new replacement? I know this won't exactly answer your question here, but as an alternate option, have you considered rebuilding your original carburetor?The Carter AFB is darn near indestructible and is virtually maintenance-free. It's an excellent, excellent carburetor! A rebuild kit will cost about a tenth of a new carburetor, and anyone with a screwdriver and a pair of pliers can rebuild one on the kitchen table with some time, patience, and by following the directions included with the kit. And I certainly say this from the "if I can do this, anyone can" perspective!I think you would spend less money and effort rebuilding your original, and the result would be a good, reliable carburetor, along with the satisfaction of having done it yourself. :o)Good luck!
