My B is running awesome now and I have all the
bits ready to hook up the A/C. I drove it a bit
today until I noticed a little problem: The front
float bowl lid is leaking gas. The screws are
fully tightened and the little rubber seal is
present. What type of sealant is safe to use in a
case like that; I certainly don't want gas to
leak. The gas doesn't leak onto the manifold but
instead it leaks onto the "frame" rail. That's
still bad though so the car is parked until...
How can I measure the fuel pressure that my pump
is delivering? That may be the problem.
Also any ideas on how to extract more sound from
the exhaust? I have a non-original muffler and
the exhaust tip points down instead of straight
back. Would that make the car that much quieter?
The exhaust system is a stock manifold and
downpipe and stock diameter pipe all the way to a
single rear muffler, and it's too quiet!!
Otherwise the car is almost just right.
