    You can go to a dealership and pay an arm and a leg for a new one.
    Most auto parts stores charge around $275 for a rebuilt one.
    If you are mechanically inclined you can rebuild it for around $50

    Are you sure its bad? What problems are you having?

    I called the local dealer just to find out the price on a new Kehin (however ya spell it) carb. They said $770 for a new one for an 88lx auto. I talked to brother in NJ who used to work at the honda dealership and he said they go for anywhere from 1000-1500. Definitely gonna go with a weber when I replace the carb on this thing.

    dumbass auto makers. You can buy a Weber 38/38 kit brand new for half, direct from Weber! Less online!
