The throttle shaft in my carb base is very loose. Anyone have a good fix?

lonkey, i am not sure how to repair the looseness, but if you mention the brand and number someone may have a spare core that is rebuildable. usualy a competent rebuilder can repair your problem, give it a good rebulid and you are back to friving the car quickly. tell us where you are located and someone should be able to recommend a good carb guy. i am no good with cargs, even a 1 bbl., so i have mine done.i was lucky one time about 5 years ago and a gentleman at

a car show came up to my car and asked me if i wanted to buy a carb for my 54 windsor. he gave me a price of $20, and when i went to his house he was a real collector of auto stuff. the carb was brand new and is still on the car today. good luck, but give the forum more info. capt den

where are you located in central ca.?

i'm in modesto. have 50 4 dr.

have a spare carter (ball &ball) 1 bbl. i bought a while back on ebay. has broken choke linkage piece but could be exchanged with your choke parts. base throttle is tight and carb is complete.

probably work out something very reasonable.

carb # is D6H2

let me know if that will help,

Sorry I couldn't get back to you sooner. I live in Fresno. About the only time I get up that way is when there is a swap meet in Turlock. Let me know what you want for the carb and maybe we can work something out. Thanks.

Contact forum member Mark Haymond. He also lives in Fresno and also has a 50 Plymouth. He may be able to help you out on parts and repairs.
