So we are what, just a little over 4 days until Christmas? So I have this dilemma, I am redoing this 70 for my son for Christmas and would of had it completely finished tonight, BUT. Damn "buts," you gotta hate them. I recieved the carb rebuild kit for it and when I went to replace the jet thats by the main jet in the center of the carb, I noticed a problem. The stinking threads in the tube are stripped therefor the carb is junk. So.....I need another carb and ASAP. I thought about ordering one, but they are a little high, not sure which to get, and not sure if there is enough time to get it by then. So basically I am desperate for one so I could use any info on the best one to purchase or if you have a good one sitting around let me know please. Thanks....James

If I was you, I would just epoxy or JB weld the new jet in for now and look for another carb after Christmas when you have more time. And it always bugs me when anyone uses the word "ASAP".

Lol, Sorry for the "ASAP," but I need one fast. I guess I could do that, but the tube looks to have a broken piece of the other jet ij the very bottom.
