Default Re: Carb backfire when release accelerator - Part 2

Hey
I was the guy with the black crud problem. Do not use the small paper filter in the glass sediment bowl. It works better without it. Take the nut off the bottom of the Zenith carb and clean the crud out of the carb. Drain the tank out and filter your gas. Then put about 1 gallon in and shake the car by standing on the running boards. Repeat until the gas is crud free. Install a Pensile filter in the gas tank and you should be good to go. I have seen a little more in the sediment bowl but not much and it's doing its job. Hope this helps.
