Also all the clamps have to be tight for the same reason. Funny I used to have
a similar problem with the old glass fuel bowls on my previous early
car,...would not seal if gasket had dried out.
Carb fuel bowls need a good seal too...

Subject: Re: [Roadsters] when I got stranded by the 2000...
Happened to me a couple of times. I went crazy trying to figure it out.
there was a very small hole in my (Rubber) fuel line. it was sucking air
under a load. I cut the line and it was fine until it wore throgh again. I
finally fixed the problem and replaced the hose. No problems, runs great.
