Some claims that the plastic part in the middle of the carburetor tends to be damaged and cause a leak

Hello

mine is leaking a little on the bottom and the car is not launching hard it just dies (4speed), don't know if the fuel leaking could cause this or its clogged on the low speed. o-rings are good and don't leak. cold starting without choke is painfull too even on hot days. I dont want to get rid of the TQ it gets good mpg and it is stronger than the avs i had before. someone had any problems on launching hard the car?
the secondarys are fine, its just the off line using the primariesTighten up the spring on the secondary air valve till the bog goes away.
I didn't, I set them at 29/32 but I'll try set them higher to see if it gets better, maybe its the floats like you said the idle mixture needed to be 4 turns out to have a good idleDid you try a high float level setting?
Address the other issues first.
Its a 318 .030 with a voodoo cam, 9-1 compression, eletronic ignition with chrome box, action plus intake, 6138s thermoquad(340 manual) with .098 jets(stock its .095) sparks are light brow, cruising and wot are good the big problem is the take off and cold start, I'm not running choke because the intake has no choke well like the original, its my daily driverWhat engine are you running? TQ are always lean and need a choke and pull off to start easy, even in warm weather. Small Block carbs are leaner than Big Block carbs.
