carb help

I tried to rebuild my 2 bbl seemed easy but it leaked gas all over, when i stuck it on the car. I gave up, my car was messed up and would always die going around a corner, not starting, and didn't seem to have power, this is why i was messing with the carb today. I put what I thought to be a good carb on it but it fouled all the plugs, i then put the old one back on and now it won't stay running, i changed the plugs also. seeing that I am now out like 70$. I am just going to go buy a rebuilt carb. I am wondering if I go to the auto parts place get a new carb and 8 new plugs and throw it on will I be fine or will it still need adjustment? I don't have the 99$ an hour to pay some one to fix it.

No matter what carb you get,you will need to do some fine tunning.
Not to worry.These old cars are not complicated to dial in.
You are probably running a Carter BBD.Very,very simple carb.

Let us know what carb you get,and we can help you dial it in.
