/6 carb help

only carb i ever messed with that didnt frustrate me is a 4777 holley! like you said it was the float way out was the issue and i shoulda left that plastic cap thing on there to start with! was doing great went to crank it other morning and kicked of fast idle to soon an it stumbled and died, went to flooding when i tried to re fire! running like a top other than that and feel like itll continue! cant afford FI and fixing up old slant to keep away from computerized fi stuff so ant going there was just flusterd! if i have any more carb issues a new holley 2 berral would be my next move along with dulta duels but im skeerd mpg would suffer, im happy with it like it is long she acts right!! thanks dan, you the /6 man!!
