Lean Burn Box


I am looking to buy a lean burn box, working or not (I can have it rebuilt) for 
my 78 NYB.  The Chrysler part number, both from catalogue and the existing box, 
is #4111278.  A local parts person ran my vin# and verified it as a car made 
for Canada with no Cat, 400-4bbl.  The car gets no timing advance at or 
slightly off idle, yet all other sensors that feed the computer are putting out 
the proper signal, and there is good vacuum at the computer box itself.  The 
car runs fine once past idle and just off idle into early acceleration.  The 
problem has been diagnosed by a top Chrysler mechanic who also goes back to The 
Days, and he feels confident that it is the box.  I do not want to send my 
computer to be rebuilt in case is it mis-built, and prefer to keep it as a 
spare if possible.  I already have the replacement kit, but I wantg to keep the 
original system as it is very clean, near mint, with 20,000 miles, original 
paint, and most components.

Please contact me if you have a #4111278 that you can sell. Many thanks to 
those who have been sending me tech advice and moral support.  It is much 
appreciated.
Tom
