On a 68 f100, with 188,000 miles, is it even worth it to put a new carb in it? How long do these trucks usually run for. I just want a stock or carb that isnt that expensive. Any suggestions?

You can rebuild yours, have it rebuilt, or buy a rebuilt. Either way these ol Fords can go on forever if you take care of them. :-)

Call NAPA, you will need a kit (plenty of instructions) and a gallon of carb cleaner for over night soaking. You can do it yourself.

What engine is the carb for...the single barrels for the 300 are quite easy to rebuild.
