The Ford Barn - View Single Post - Zenith Carb leaking, what type of needle value to get

Thanks for all your help. I was able to visit one of our club members who had an extra float valve and gaskets. I didn't see anything in the old float valve, but that was likely the problem, it wasn't closing off the fuel flow as it should. After I cleaned everything up and installed the new valve and gaskets and put it back on the car, it was leak free and the car ran fine again.
