Default Carburaters

Does anyone know of a good shop or place that are great with carburaters (sp?)? My current carburater (sp again?) is Fucked up, its the original one from 84'. It idles at like 3500 sometimes untill it warms up, then drops to like 1000. The choke is sealed or something, or its the dash pot valve. I would probally install it myself, but I dont have the need, or feel like tuning it. So I was wondering if anyone new a shop, place, or person that is great with carbs on an old 84' Slonda? If they offer,will, or want to install it for a good price I might just let them install it. If not, I am going to install it and let them tune it. Thanks

Just buy a manual, installing/tuning carbs is easy. They're really simple.

along time ago there was a NAPA/machine shop/carb shop on VA Beach Blvd. I don't know if it is still there but the guy really hooked me up.

I got my Weber Carb in the mail from the brown man like a week ago. I know how to install it, Probally take like 45-1:15 minuets depending on how fast I feel like working, I already planed on installing it myself. I don't have a problem with installing it; Its easy. I just don't want to tune it and stuff. Plus my Wire/hose map is all black and everything, So I have to find a new one. Its probally in the car manual (hopefully). I was just looking for a good shop to tune it.

I have the 32/36 DGEV weber.

It has the original OEM carb on it right now that came with it in 84'. The early 80's carbs are the worst carbs for Honda's. Plus its one of those hybrid one, that they were messing with that they were trying to get better gas mileage with. I have no problem doing the install, just want to get a really good tune on it.
