Title: 79 2.3l carb
Post by: sathrien on January 01, 2013, 11:37:07 PM

which mustang or bobcat has the same carb as the 79 pinto i cant find it anywhere because when i try to find a new carb for my pinto its impossible but then every time i look it says it fits a mustang and a bobcat so maybe i can just rip on off them

If you want new you can get them from O'rielly's and Autozone. Mine for my 78 is new. http://www.oreillyauto.com/site/c/search/Carburetor/02431/C0359.oap?year=1978&make=Mercury&model=Bobcat&vi=1196041&keyword=carb (http://www.oreillyauto.com/site/c/search/Carburetor/02431/C0359.oap?year=1978&make=Mercury&model=Bobcat&vi=1196041&keyword=carb)
