Carb Blues, Gonna Let It Go

My brother helps me out whenever I ask for help, but sometimes I just get tired of having to lean on him so much. After putting in 12 hours at the shop, the last thing he wants to do is come over and mess with my car. Sure, he does it, because that's what family does, but I can only ask him to do so much. He's taking me to work this afternoon and picking me up after midnight.

As far as my current problem, I feel like I can get it fixed if I can get a decent carburetor. I don't know. I thought about perhaps just putting it in the shop and have them mess with it, but I feel like, man, I just spent $130 for a rebuilt carb, it should at least run for a little while. I'm just so frustrated with the whole thing right about now.
