sounds like the floats may be set to high or the needle seat valve has crap in it,,if you get it running and look down in the carb you will propably see gas gushing out of the vent tube flooding it out
I just reread your post. The car is running. starts with no problem. I am just trying to adjust the carb. I have never been good at carbs. I hooked up a vacuum gauge to it but I am only getting 14#s of vacuum.
I would not be surprised it the carb was full of crud. Maybe I should rebuild it?
