I'm not quite sure where your tech ability lies, but just separating a set of carbs to replace a leaking 'T" isn't rocket surgery, but close enough for some. Of course, that also gives some opportunity to fix other things while apart.. I also polished the bores where the fuel "t" and it's associated fuel plumbing go into the carb bodies with my dremel tool, and polished the needle seats, and choke plungers, with new choke plunger boots last January when it was 19 degrees here on a warm day.
I chucked the choke plungers into my cordless dewalt, and polished the brass up with metal polish with new booties to prevent any air leaks and keep foreign materials out of the fuel / air mix.
I also soda blasted (lightly ) all of the carb bodies and polished up the exterior brass tubing just because the gangreen carb look is actually no longer in fashion.
Don't sweat putting the jets and small parts back into the same carb, unless there is a reason not to.. like a matching buggers up thread or something.. a 110 jet is a 110 jet, no matter what carb it came out of. Inspect it all and make sure it is all in good shape, and nothing is plugged.
Just do not go in looking to do this in 20 minutes. Never rush a repair. problems arise, threads strip and screws snap. That's life, take your time, and you'll be fine!
Easy peasy.
