Anyone have a Carb I can borrow?

Still fighting with my L69, trying to get it to idle properly. Does anyone have a properly operating Center Carb for the Tri Carb setup that I could borrow? Willing to pay for insured shipping here and back, plus whatever deposit you feel proper. I promise I will return it in the conditiion recieved. It would really help me get to the bottom of this.
Thanks,
Randy

I've got a regular 1966 2bbl carb you can have if it will work for you. Motor last ran 4-5 years ago.

Exclamation Check the ends

The problem could be the center carburetor, but it could also be one or both of the end carburetors. Sometimes they leak air past the throttle plates. If you want to be sure it's the center one at fault put block off plates on the end carburetors, get it to run properly on just the center one, then add back the end ones, one at a time. The results may surprise you.
