mechanic is saying that he needs to remove carbs to investigate/fix backfire issue (bad). He believes carb(s) are dumping fuel which is cause of the problem- maybe float stuck or something? There is a heavy fuel smell after running the car...heavy! How many labor hours should I expect for removal, tear down and rebuild of carbs?

It,s a what sort of set up you got sort of thing., and how many OTHER related subsystems need attention...with that said ..$.400.00...+ bucks.as a wild ass quess. |
