I think I saw a post over at FABO or FBBO and someone said that he quit rebuilding thermoquads.
I hope that's not true.

Something "happened" to that guy. We sent him a 72 340 carb, it took forever and when it came back it was so full of sand the throttle shaft would not move. No excuse for that. Was not cheap either, there is no place for him in my world.
I never had a problem with TQs myself but got talked into sending one to "the Guru". It was for a I/Stock Mirada. We couldn't even use it... IT WAS FULL OF SAND
Like media blasting sand? Or like they took a trip to the beach?
