A few times over the years my Holly's main jets have gotten obstructed. I'm
running multiple fuel filters including a final clear one which is perfectly
clean.
Since contamination doesn't seem to be getting in with the fuel, I suspect
shards of gasket in the jets. It could be from the bowl gasket. But it seems
more likely that fibers from the seals in the bowl's 4 mounting holes get
carried inside on the threads of the mounting bolts when they're inserted to
tighten the bowl to the body.
So my questions are - can anybody confirm whether those fiber seals in the
float bowl holes are a source of contamination and are there any alternative
seals that won't shed flakes when the bolts are taken in and out?
Other thoughts/suggestions gratefully accepted.
Thanks
