famous carb issue -sac ford guy

Post by sacramento_ford »

something has come to my atttenton, befoe the rebuilt, the truck was floooding. and stalling. installed carb, and it was squirting up the needle valve, seem no matter what i do seems like im just gettig alot of fule too fast. that would explain burnt gas vapor coming from pcv valve, what would cause the fuel from coming way too fast, the cause may be a cure.

Install a fuel pressure regulator and set it around 5psi, adjust accordingly if needed.
