I hate when that happens, Usually in Alero forum. Anyway, I plan on deleting it so soon it will not show for those others who are reading this thread. I am banning the user as well.

At any rate, back to the subject. I think if you feel safe in doing the carb rebuild yourself go for it, or if you have someone to do it you can trust. It is definitely cheaper. You are describing the accelerator pump, it gives an extra spurt of fuel when you step on it hard. I have rebuilt Rochester 4GCs, 4MVs, and Quadrajets, sometimes with exelent results, I rebuilt a Holley with poor results, maybe I was off that time, who knows (?). Good luck either way and let us know what happens.
