Fired the Colt today before big rain headed our way.
It's funny, I ran the fuel pump many times yesterday with no leak issues.
I come out this morning and the gargae smells like a gas refinery.
The fuel filter top bolt is leaking and 2 of the banjos on the carbs are leaking.
The oil filled pressure gage says to clip the tit on the rubber seal plug after install.
I had never done that, so I did and now as it gets hot, oil leaks out the top!
I have another gage, I will swap the plug.
I have to thank Rick C in PA for helping with the first start on the Webers.
After some hickups and burps it came to life.
And idled at 1100 RPM.
Something the single 4 never did.
Still not running quite right, more tuning to do.
But progress.
Fuel pressure is still a question, the Redline pressure regulator acts weird.
But the Holley regulator did also on trying to adjust it.
Adjustment all the way out it shows close to 7 PSI with engine off.
The is the bypass number on the Holley Red Pump.
So I adjusted it about half way in. Clock-Wise.
Then when the engine starts, it will slowly reduce to, in the last run, 2.5 PSI.
I am concerned with the 7 number and my seats in the Carbs.
Weber folk say 3 PSI is the sweet spot.
There is no return line from the regulator to the tank.
Here is a video of the installation, engine not running.
