B carburetor leak
Recently, I was left along side of the road with a dirty carburetor. After cleaning it with carb cleaner and blowing it out with an air compressor it has my engine running better than ever.
Unfortunately, I have a fuel leak somewhere on the inside of the carburetor, as gas is leaking from the throat of the carb. I replaced all the Zenith B carburetor with new gaskets from Sniders. When I put the car away I always close the in-line valve and run the engine until it quits. Any ideas? |

Re: B carburetor leak
Your float valve is bad or your float level is set to high. Check both.
