Finding a vacuum leak

[V8COOPMAN]

This thread has gotten WAAAAAAAAY off base. You said it won't start if you don't prime carb first. Are you talking about after it sits for a week, or after eating a burger at the joint? When you have this "fuel" problem, are the carb bowls dry? Do you see fuel squirt when you move the throttle? IF the bowls are dry, the problem most-likely is NOT a vacuum leak. What are your REAL symptoms......the COMPLETE story? DD
