The power valve is easy and cheap to replace. Most auto part stores keep them in stock. Just make sure to put the same numbered power valve in that came out. The number should be on the power valve itself.

Blown powervalve would cause it to be rich at idle and low rpm.

Might want to make sure the metering plate is in place as well.

Thanks
