Default Re: Going to look tomorrow, need advice

Rocket, congratulations on bring home your new baby. I noticed a few things you may want to check on:

The carb is a TIllotson which is a good carb. But they are prone to warping (and leaking fuel) due to heat from the engine. To fix that sand the two halves lightly and that should fix the fuel leakage problem.

Also, is that a grease cup on the intake manifold? If you have a two blade fan have it checked VERY VERY carefully as they have the unfortunate tendancy to come apart and open up radiators, hoods and you head if you are standing next to it when it comes apart.

Great job though,

Mike
