86 CJ-7 Carb
 
I am in need of a carb for a 86 CJ-7 6 cy. Any leads would be great. Can't
find one anywhere!

Try your local NAPA store, they have replacements readily available. FWIW,
if it was me and your local smog laws permit it, I'd toss the stock carb in
favor of the two barrel Weber K551. Check out Collins Brothers web site.

Re: 86 CJ-7 Carb
 
I just put on a Weber k-551 on my 86 cj7 that I bought from Collins bros.
for about $300. now my jeep starts great cold or hot, idles and stopped
blowing out black smoke. one thing I had to add on my jeep was a holley low
fuel pressure regulator (around $25 from jegs.com) because the weber need
under 3.5 psi fuel pressure and my jeep was 5.5 psi so I set the regulator
at 2.5 psi. when the weber was running with 5.5 psi the carb was bleeding
off the excess pressure into the carb and causing it to blow black smoke
when I started it when it was hot. carmine

Why not just put a rebuild kit in yours?

The kits are only about $20.00 and are easy to put in. They come with
good instructions.
