pony carburetors???

i'm thinking of buying a pony carb 2100 for my 300. I bought another rebuilders and it already bent the throttle blade rod. only had it like 6mo. whatever i guess. best part is i would gain a hot air choke over my man. choke

so anybody ever used a pony carb 2100

I'm leery of any carb manufacturer who claims voodoo to fix mysterious issues. You can get a rebuild kit for a 2100 for $20 or less. You can find 2100s anywhere, I have 4 hanging in my garage and have scrapped at least 20-30 of them.

I dont know how a poor rebuild would lead to a bent throttle blade rod, especially 6 months later. Is your throttle cable/linkage putting trying to open past WOT when you push the accerator to the floor?
