Rabon - just be glad the fuel injection system has been slightly improved from the 1957 unit. I knew a gentleman who bought one new in 1957, who then bought coaster diaphragms by the dozen; and kept at least 2 in the glove box so he could make it to the store and back without calling the tow truck.
The design was changed for the 1958 unit, making it somewhat more reliable, although still no guarantee you would make it home.
I have long contended that the cell phone was invented due to the reliability of electronic ignition and modern fuel injection; maybe the CB radio was invented due to the reliability of the early fuel injection systems!!!
And you are quite correct about carburetors. We proved conclusively doing the early 1980's that even feedback carburetors could not meter fuel AT LOW VELOCITY sufficiently well to meet emission standards, and no, we won't be going back. However, for the older vehicles, I MUCH prefer the characteristics of carburetion over fuel injection (cost, reliability, ease of installation, reliability, ease of modification, reliability, tuneability for the novice, reliability, ease of repair, reliability, etc.).
Jon.
