Those things happen, simply troubleshooting by buying parts.  A correct calibrated original carb would be better than any "generic" unit purchased. 

I just spent quite a bit of time trying to help out a customer, and it turns out the Accel distributor he had purchased was defective.  He installed a new MSD read to run unit, and the problems went away.....Cliff
