Carburator

[noah4009]

I have a 1971 55HP Crysler. Model 557HC serial3188. It is sticking, when started it rev very high and had to be tapped to get it to slow down. When I take it apart to clean should I buy a carb kit or a repair kit. If suggested I just clean then do I need any gaskets? If I need any kit, do you know the part number? I have my chrysler part manuel and it says Repair kit part no: RK976. No carb kit number. It has gasket part numbers, but do not know what gasket if that is all I need. Thanks Frank
