I have a 2019 Wrangler Sport S JL 2dr, was wondering about adding a new carb for better throttle control and what I need to accomplish that?
thanks
You want to add a carburetor to a fuel injected motor? You should also looking into a leaded gas conversion as well then.

Holley 750 CFM 4 barrel & an Edelbrock intake manifold. Lol
That would be great. Especially married to the 392. I would also consider doing away with seatbelts and putting the high beam switch in the floor.
Air bags gone for weight reduction as well.

OP, you can have the Carbs off of my 03 Yamaha... They just won't break and give me an excuse to sell it.

All this carburetor talk is giving me flashbacks to my teenage self in the AOL car maintenance chat rooms.

Me: The engine in my K5 Blazer is not running smoothly. What's up?

Random chat room respondent: Probably cr@p in the carburetor.

Me: OK. How often should I do that?

While we're in the wayback machine, can we bring back some of those cool ass flip out vents for the front windows?

These days it's called a throttle body. What engine/transmission do you have? Under what conditions do you want to improve things?
