I'm a moderator on the Facebook Quadrajet page. It's really not much fun, and as you mentioned there are a butt-load of folks who put information up there that should close the laptop and quickly as they possibly can go directly back to their day jobs.
Many times the folks asking questions aren't much better. It says right at the top of the page to provide your carburetor part number when asking for help. Even so you get posts like, "my truck is orange, my engine is painted blue, I have a leather wrapped steering wheel and fuzzy dice hanging from the rear view mirror. When I make a slight left turn at 34.2 MPH I get a slight stumble, what's wrong?"
Instead of contributors asking for more information you start gettng responses like "check the gas cap to make sure it's tight" or "your coil wire is probably loose", or even worse "you need to take the carb apart and put bigger jets in it". I know I'm being a little cynical but this sort of thing happens WAY to often for my liking on those pages......
