As part of the rebuild of my car, I redid the carbs with a kit from VB.
The engine starts well but the idle is inexistant. I keep the engine alive with fuel from the acc pump by giving it gas when it`s about to die. At high RPM`s, it runs quite well.
What I think is happening is that I am pulling air at the gasket. The wall where the idle fuel passages are is quite thin and that`s why I think I have my problem. I was thinking of applying a little bit of sealube (which is used in aircraft and does not dissolve in fuel) to keep the air from being sucked in.
Anybody care to comment?
