edelbrock carburetor flooding like crazy....

One quick tip if you like eyebrows... You are not looking at the jets. You'r elooking down the venturis of the carb, seeing the boosters which are dripping fuel onto the top of the throttle blades. You don't see fuel because it went down into the intake. The quickest way to start it is hold it wide open and start it. But - don't do that from under the hood, and never, ever look down there when it's running. Especially if you need to work the throttle. I would suggest you down load the Edelbrock rebuild instructions and read up on the names and process. If it isn't running right after you restart it, then you'll have to pull the top off and clean the needles and seats.
