The setup in the box will get the car started, but it won't run the way it should. You'll need to check the carb over to make sure the linkages are adjusted properly and the external bolts are tightened.

It would be a good idea to purchase a book on how to tune a carb, as it is fairly easy to do. Finding a mechanic that can do efficiently is not so easy.
