Re: 94 carb leak at accelerator pump shaft
Sorry for the delayed update - I herniated a back disc and haven't been messing with the car. Anyhow, I took it out today and confirmed that the leak is just coming from the throttle blade shaft after the car is shut down. it's not real bad, but my attached garage doesn't need gas fumes in it. I ended up purchasing another throttle body which was supposed to be NOS - it's not, it's actually "rebuilt." I also got from vintage speed, a reamer and .005 shaft. The .005 shaft slides right through the new throttle body with no resistance, but there really isn't any play. I'm not quite sure what to do at this point. I have the rest of the carb sealed up and tuned pretty well I think at this point. I don't feel the "new" TB with .005 shaft will solve the problem.
