So I've been working on restoring my 1978 MGB that I inherited all summer, and finally got it going just in time for the car show that I've been going to for years. I get it there, and find out that I'm going to need to rebuild the carburetor (after taking with several people, including MGAGuru, for those of you who are familiar with him). So I came home and went online to try and find a rebuild kit for the original Zenith-Stromberg that came with the car. My question is which kit to get? I've found several different ones, all with extremely different prices, and was wondering if anyone with experience could tell me which to get. I know for sure that I'm going to need a new idle screw (or whatever it's called), as it no longer moves in the nut, but am not sure whether or not that comes in any kits, and if not, where could I get one? The only experience I have on MGs is anything that I've worked on this summer.
For anybody wondering what's wrong with the car, it starts, idles really low (like at 500 with the accelerator to the floor) and then eventually dies no matter what I do. Sometimes it won't start at all. Alternative diagnoses will be appreciated, though I'll still need a new idle screw.
Thanks!

EDIT: In case anybody has the same problem, I found the idle screw, the nut in goes in, and a carb rebuild kit on Victoria British's website.
