anything? i dont think its the pump ...and i dont think its the carb....

[mobboss]

pull the sight plugs see where the fuel is . adj from there.  im thinkin that needle and seat are stuck and that is why it starts when you pump the throttle .

[mobboss]

there are things that you can do to remove things it is not.

[jetjunky101]

i wouldnt think the carb needs 2 be rebuilt agin  but mabe it dose  gona clean it all out and see what that dose ...i guess

[jetjunky101]

took the needles out...and found a big chunk of rubber or silacone in the front needle  dont know how it got there ....dont know if that was evan the prob...
but i am sure it wasnt pose 2 be there

Yeah I found shit in mine too, it was bits of the float coming apart.

exactly the reason why you need to run a fuel filter/water seperator.  a small piece of dirt can ruin your weekend, not to mention your motor.  i have a water seperator before my fuel pump and then an inline smaller micron filter right after my pump.

I got same setup as you. This also another reason to use brass floats instead of the crumbly black neoprene ones.

looks like i rebuilding a carb  needle started working and now evrything leaks 

[mobboss]

sorry man that sucks! but it should do it.

[jetjunky101]

did a fast kit ...not the trick kit....but fired right up...but then cut out  think just need some adjusting

[jetjunky101]

mine were brass...got new fuel lines and other stuff 
update...the black rubber crap in my carb was gasket sealer 

lesson learned .....

[mobboss]

well??? how is it does it run?

[jetjunky101]

on the fuel pump gasket  getting inline filter from pump 2 carb 2day and then i will see how it runs
didnt want anymore rubber crap in the system... 

[jetjunky101]

this sucks    any help on where i should start with the needles ? on a holley

[mobboss]

what do you mean?

[mobboss]

ok just to clarify the float is attached to the needle and seat when te float level gets to a sertain point the float closes the needle into the seat.

[jetjunky101]

well i set them at where the old ones were ...i thought ...but now it just keeps dumping fuel like ALOT and it just keeps pouring in...so this means my needles are way 2 high right?

[jetjunky101]

thank you... i posted 2 soon ...and i didnt trust myself..  i got it    and it runs awsome...

[mobboss]

Off topic but I hear ya. I was raised by my grandfather since my dad worked his ass off 7 days and 12 hours when I was a kid.. he kinda taught me that nothing is super complicated. Always said, "take it apart, and see whatcha see...  I saw a float set correctly and fuel going past it no matter what.. too much fuel... Yeah, beyond the grave they still help.
