I'm not sure, but the last time I floated the problem invariably everyone said "clean out the fuel filter, and if it's not that, clean the carbs". I didn't have to remove the carb, I just took my scr

This sounds like it's a good place to start without disassembling the whole fuel system. As far as your adding threadlocker to prevent a recurrence, the only threadlocker I'm familiar with is an adhe

Well, I just tried to make it up to Stowe for the British Invasion and it gave me a lot of grief. The engine seems to be running, just doesn't have anything to propel it. It's exactly the same feelin

I'll look. Although I said that if I push the engine (say 3500+ rpms), and I can trigger it starting, and it will continue to plague me for the trip, what I perhaps didn't make clear is that it will

I realized they're HIF carbs, so I haven't figured out how to do that without removing them from the engine. I don't seem to be able to do that to an HIF just opening it up, unless there's a shortcut

35,000 miles, or 135,000 miles? Don't forget the OD tops off at 99,999. Missed you on the 1956/1975 part - which is it? 1974+ would have rubber bumpers, chrome if it predates that.

I often do 25+ mpg in my MGB, and has a high-performance engine in it, so that's pretty good mileage, considering. Only drawback is the high-octane fuel, which is a bit pricier. Still, I like that a
