This weekend I went to take the kids out in the Barracuda and I fired it up without a problem. After it was idling for about 2 minutes it sputtered and shut off, and gas just poured out of the bowl vent valve around the accelerator pump rod. Enough to pool on top of the intake manifold about a 1/2 inch deep. Now, if I let is sit for a while, it will start up and do the same thing after 5 or 10 seconds. There is then a "gurgling" sound coming from the carburetor. It is a 2 barrel carter carb on a 318. Any thoughts? I know very little apart from the basics of carburation. Thanks.
