·When I went out to buy a vacuum guage earlier I started to smell gas so when I got to the parts store I opened the hood to find that the newly rebuilt carb was still leaking gas.
I opened the carb and reduced the float level (again) but this time I started the car to see if it would rise in operation.
It didn't so everything should be OK with the level but I noticed that the gas entering the feul bowl was shooting in past the float needle in a fountain-like manner. It soaks the gasket at the top of the feul bowl. This doesn't seem right to me. Any of the carb gurus out there know if the feul should enter the bowl in a less vioent manner or is this the norm?
