Been working on getting the baby to run just to ride it up to h20 this weekend with friends
Ran into this tonight when i turned ignition off.
The right carb kept dripping fuel into bowl, like an IV in a hospital....that worries me...should it?
See video to see what i mean

Typical of an incorrect float level adjustment.
Typical of a hot hot day with an aftermarket fuel pump that does not have the trick cut-off valve that came with the car.

Re: Drip Drip
fuel line could not have gotten hot, engine only ran once for about 15 seconds
Then...drip drip drip drip
Float valve adjustment could be it
I didnt adjust them
PO did after having them rebuilt
As for aftermarket fuel pump
I am unsure
This is my first sqr
So everything in the engine is new to me
Looks like a normal fuel pump for the engine

Re: Drip Drip
Fixed
Then proceeded to fry something just as I was finishing up syncing the carbs when I knocked a link rod onto elec connection on auto choke
Engine died and something electrical went up in smoke inside front of car
What a nightt lol
