Okay here goes, I just purchased two 4973 1971 Thermoquads which were advertised as parts carburetors. One is complete, one is mostly complete. The air/fuel mixture needles are broken in both base plates. I am thinking am easy out to remove the broken off needles. or drilling and re-tapping? Either way I need to purchase new air/fuel mixture needles. Does anyone know the part# or size of them? I see many years for them but not 1971 which I know if a one year only animal. Thank you !

Can't help you with part numbers, but take a look at the attached section of the Carter TQ Service Manual. If you want the full PDF you can grab it HERE. In fact, I've got a couple more things sitting on my Web server, so check these out: 1) 1972 TQ Mopar Reference Booklet2) 1982 TQ Mopar Reference BookletThere were two types of idle mix screws used, and while it does NOT spell out the details and/or differences for the '71-only air circuit, one could expect this to be a reasonable assumption. Further on, when you successfuly extract what's stuck in there right now you'll be able to measure this.

CAB you know better than that. 71 is the best factory carb ever.

you're welcome I do have a old carter book from the 70's and a bunch of carb parts but they are not organized Seriously doubt I would have the mixture screws. Metering rods, jets, a few AVS cores (bare) If you get in a pinch PM me with your needs and give me few days to dig through what's there. My intent at some point is to try and sell all as a lot
