A carb specialist said do NOT use a "Tomco" kit. Define weird.

Have used them for years,never had a problem. Also, I was told (?) years ago that the majority of kits are assembled in Mexico by one manufacturer and then labeled for the various US vendors. shruggy

"Doing weird stuff" doesn't explain much, but it could mean the carb needs to be inspected for blocked air bleeds and fuel circuits, especially if your fuel contains ethanol. If you notice any corrosion when you do the complete disassembly, that's an obvious sign a simple gasket job won't be enough.

You can get AED kits that range from the basic gaskets up to kits that include new hardware, depending upon what you need to replace.
