Most mutt dealers has the small and large kits, $20 vs $50, Red River, TNJ, Saturn Surplus, Frontline, ect.... The small kit will usually do the trick unless your carb is in really bad shape. Large kit is for complete rebuild. Hambone

Got my last small kit from Blake @ Red River Parts around $20. TNJ Murray and Frontline has them, a little pricey tho.

To answer your question about the local auto parts store, No, they will not have it or be able to get it. I did find a place that had them and it may be in the Wiki but I do not have time to look right now.

All of the kits you will find now are for the later carbs but most of the parts such as the gaskets fit all of them. What carb do you have, there is a number on the top of the carb like 13660.
