Re: 1988 lm318 carburetor

I recently did the two quadrajets on my boat. Boat sank, sat for a year soaking wet, everything corroded as you would imagine. The quadrajets were a pleasure to clean and reassemble, when I took the vessel for her first above water ride since making the choice to be a submarine.....the carbs perform...
