Fuel Fluke

Glad you got her whooped Mulli, 3 months and some $$$. but at least you know what you have now. As far as the pressure, I`ve never run a gauge, but I think its ok, when the pump gets older, It`ll probably start leaking back down sooner. I thought holleys had sintered filters in their inlets anyhow. good luck:happy10:

I thought the same thing but this carb didn't have them. The Summit fuel log had it however.

Fact: The new stock pump holds the pressure and the Carter let the pressure drop very quickly like Spaz has mentioned. It was actually way less that 5 mintutes now that I thank about it.



Glad you got some bugs worked out of that fuel problem.

Happy motoring, and I hope you snag one of those honeys out there, or two....a guy can dream right?

My fuel gauge drops like now when I kill the motor, but I have no explanation for you on the continued pressure after shut down so I will shut up now and let someone smarter give you their $.02.

Me to... but I really think it was my fault the whole time. Trying to get that gas gauge to read dead nuts was a stab in the back more than anything. But anyways .... today there isn't any car shows here in town. I might venture out to see if I can find one. Today however I am going to take the car to my upholstery lady and let her look at my headliner and visors. I can't find her number after all these years. I'm thinking it would be best to let the painter, glass man get done with installing my new gaskets before he installs the headliner. The previous painter taped out the gaskets and didn't do a good job around the gaskets is why it needs painted. I don't need anymore over spray on my interior... I got enough now on my seats that I can't get to come off!!! LOL
