fuel dripping out back of carb
So I finally figured out that the GAV wasn't vibrating open, it was just play in the rod. So I tried to set it to drive about 1/4 open yesterday and there was fuel pouring out of the back of the carb where the chock opening is. The drip wouldn't stop until I completely closed the GAV. So it seems like it's either open or not. Maybe something is wrong with the GAV seat?

Re: fuel dripping out back of carb
Sounds like your carburetor float needs to be re-set or the float valve in leaking.

Take apart your carb, clean it out and set your float valve. You will need each of these to help you. You don't want to bend the float tab to adjust the float. Instead, you want to use washers. https://www.snydersantiqueauto.com/P...earchByKeyword https://www.snydersantiqueauto.com/P...EL-LEVEL-GAUGE Last edited by old31; 06-20-2021 at 07:26 AM. |
