Hi everyone

I have been reading this forum for awhile now, but I just registered because I just have started really working in my car. So here is my first doubt:

My car is running good, but I decided to rebuild the carb, which is a 2 barrel Motorcraft. After buying the rebuild kit in Autozone and disassembling it, I saw that some parts arent exactly the same (i.e. needle and seat assy), does this is normal? or should I returned the unopened kit?
I was thinking if I could maybe know the model of my carb (which I think is a 2100) I could find a kit that is exactly for this application, the problem is that I dont know how to identify my carb model. Any suggestion?

Almost forgot, my car is a 67 coupe with a 289 and 4-spd manual tranny.

Thanks

If it is running good why mess with it? You must match the serial number/ ID number of your carb. to the carb kit. Some parts have changed over the years so they do not always look exactly the same but should function the same. Try this link for ID tips: http://www.ponycarburetors.com/default.asp?page=identification
