My husband has a 1980 Toyota corolla that has been restored with the original engine, he took it to a local shop to figure out why it was getting no power and stalling out. They removed the carbs and did some testing, they figured out that the engine cylinders need to be replaced. How would you get to this part in the engine to replace these?

get a compression test done then you will know. All the cylinders can be bad. Get the readings then come back. Good luck
