Can someone recommend a good carb rebuild shop other than Roberts where I can send my DLTX 95 carb off my JD 730?

I've had Dick Stoyell in Moravia, NY recommended to do 2 cylinder carb work by A & L Parts which specializes in JD 2 cylinder tractors. Not a far drive for you.

I can't put my fingers on Dick's phone number but call Aaron at A & L at 315-536-0543 M-F Penn Yan, NY.

I have rebuilt many of these carbs before, but thisone is coated in baked on grease and and sum surface rust inside the barrels and uselly these rebuild shops sand blast everything, and that is what I was looking for.

I have used Old Carb Doctor in Nebo NC and thrilled with the results.

Makes sense. Sounds like you've gotten good help.

I don’t sandblast my carburetor, as a rule. Got rid of my sandblast. I have had issues with grit lodge in smaller orfice.
What I like to do is this .i have a propane Turkey fryer ,I put the carburetors ( cast iron only ) in an old porcelain pot and boil it with purple power ( simple green ) detergent degreaser.
If the carburetor is (aluminum ) I use Dawn platinum dish and boil it . Actually can use dawn on the cast iron .
This will remove all the old paint and grease from the all the surface . As far as the smaller .04 diameter holes I use am small drill and pin vise to drill out and solids in these holes . Then plunging it back into boiling water for final prep.
High pressure air the ports.
I find the boiling clears the smaller orfice of the idle circuits at the vortex butterfly.
Mix cup of purple power to a gallon of water .

Dick Stoyell died several years ago unless he has a son named dick. I went to the auction when they sold everything.

A son or a nephew as I know who you are referring to. The recommendation to me was made to me not even two months ago and Aaron has been taking carbs over to Moravia for a while. My understanding is Dick does work on a wide variety of carbs.

There are occasions when giving green pieces of paper to someone with advanced skills and experience is best

Dick still advertises on the John Deere Facebook page.

We have been fortunate enough to have a long-time carb guy in Salina (50 miles) who I have had rebuild many 2-cylinder JD tractor carbs and I think he does a superb job. I may have to take him another one as just yesterday evening while exercising my old JD '36 A, after starting it for the first time in many months, drove it around the yard for about 15-20 minutes, headed back toward the shed and it crapped out on me just as I reached the shed so after supper I go out and see If it will start only to find one cylinder plum full of gas. I could barely move the flywheel and when I did a large amount of gas spewed out the left hand petcock so I kept working it and finally got it to turn over and quit spewing the gas. I also drained the carb. I again attempted to start it this p.m. and did get it to fire a couple of times but by that time I was totally pooped out from cranking to decided to wait till this evening and give it a tug with the '50 A if I can talk the lucky little lady to help me, to see what happens.

I worked on my own simply because I like doing it but I got good advice from poster RandyB in Michigan. I haven't seen his handle on here for quite some time. Is he still active? He sent me a one page document and pictures outlining rebuilding and tuning the DLTX carbs.

About the Rachel YouTube video. Some years back, in the comments to one of her many demonstrations, somebody wrote, “I need to buy a tractor so I can explain to my wife why I’m watching this.”
