Git'n ****ed.
Fired up Cruis'n Rulz! first time this year. Ran fine for about 1 min, then gas started coming out the float bowl vent on the Rochester Quadraflush 4M. Rats! Float sunk, I thought. Pulled the carb top. The float was the foam type, and felt heavy. Cool. Pulled the carb and went through it. Replaced the float with a brass type. Set it up, and installed. Ran good for a minute, and as before, gas started coming out the vent. I thought MAYBE I flubbed the float setting, so took the top off and rechecked. OK. So... Possibly have a bad new needle and seat, But I'm thinking more like fuel pressure problem now. Does the Mercruiser mechanical FP have a pressure reg built in? Do they stick sometimes? Getting tired of pulling the carb top.... JR \ -- -------------------------------------------------------------- Home Page: http://www.seanet.com/~jasonrnorth |
