Is this all the time? Unpredictably intermittent? After the car sits for a
while?
I have heard similar complaints; had them myself, and the blame tends to go
to ethanol in the fuel, but I am not sure that I buy that. All the time may
mean, as had been pointed out, that there is gas in the float. Intermittent
may mean that there is piece of debris in the chamber that finds its way in
the way every so often. Also previously mentioned. I have the 'after the car
sits for a while' problem and opening the bowl reveals a little gummy stuff
that keeps it from working properly. My bet is that since it is only and
always one carb that you have a leaking float with gas in it. You don't even
need to take the carbs off or disconnect the lines to check it out. I prefer
the rap on top of the hex that hold the cover rather than the side.
