    Gas pouring out of carb

    I had a spare Carter carb that I switched out the Holley with and the problem followed. So i knew it wasn't the carb. So, a friend of mine who is a mechanic said he had actually had situations where somehow there was a blockage in the fuel return off of the pump that caused the fuel to back up...

    Gas pouring out of carb

    The float seems fine. I even took it out and submerged in water to see if it would Show any leaks. Question: Is it possible for the fuel pump to be the culprit? I mean it’s worked fine for the last three years since I’ve installed it but is this something someone’s encountered before? Could the...

    Gas pouring out of carb

    Well, I took the needle valve out cleaned it really good and put it back. Same problem. I took it out again and this time I remembered that I had an extra one from another 1945. Tried that and the same problem. And just to be clear this thing is definitely leaking out the bottom. I guess my...

    Question about high speed air bleed on Holley 1945

    This is (I believe) the high speed air bleed. It has 3 little holes about halfway up. Interestingly, it has a hole at the bottom but it has been plugged by a a small amount of solder. Does anyone know what the benefit is to that either remaining plugged or not plugged? I know it's an odd...

    i want to remove this tree and plug it. I have read one person saying a 1/2" pipe plug and others have said an oil pan plug. Anyone have a part they have ordered or can anyone confirm what they have used in this situation with size? Many thanks for your responses.

    Fast idle screw replacement?

    Inexplicably, my fast idle adjustment screw is missing for my Holley 1945. I have looked but been unable to find somewhere on line to purchase one. I noticed that the machine screws that hold the carb body are the same width and have the same thread. Should I just go to a hardware store and find...

I had to break those two nuts to get the old one out. Does anyone know what those nuts are called and/or where to find new ones? Below...

    Paint recommendations for Air cleaner

    Stripped down my simple 1BBL air cleaner. Going to paint it black of course. I was just going to go to NAPA and find something. Anything to avoid? Any suggestions? It seems Chrysler just used some kind of semi-gloss black. Thanks

    [WANTED] 1970-'80 1-barrel air cleaner housing for my '75 Dart.

    It could be. The air temperature diaphragm has been capped off so that is a concern. I need that to work properly. If you hook a vacuum tester to that nipple you should get vacuum and the air temp door inside the snorkel should open up. There should be a thermostat inside the pan. I do not want...
