Weber carb overhaul kit

[Dave_Vrba@mail.sel.sony.com (Dave Vrba)]

     Hello Listers,
     
     Again I must tap the wealth of knowledge available to answer a 
     question from the DCO. (dumb current owner, but getting much smarter 
     by the day with all your help and guidance)
     
     I have a Weber downdraft carb on my 1275 and it is in need of an 
     overhaul because it is leaking gas and I don't want a fire.  It's not 
     a major leak but needs attention.
     
     I've looked all over this carb for a number to identify what style, 
     series or model it is and there is nery a identifier anywhere on it 
     that I can find.  I've even used small mirrors to look all over. (Unit 
     is still on the car)
     
     I want to get a "rebuild kit" from the local auto supply house but 
     don't I need to know more than "I have a Weber downdraft carb", 
     "Please give me a rebuild kit for it".
     
     By the way, is this a relatively easy job for a person who really 
     knows nothing about carberation?  Should I farm this job out to a pro?
     
     Thanks for all comments,
