SU's suddenly running rich

Featured Replies

You are all set with Blue just around the corner😀

:) I may be in NJ area in Jan. CO I'll do my best to visit my old buddy and state neighbour.

 

That would be awesome. Maybe you can help me pull my dash. An extra set of hands would be well... handy.   :)

Well like flipping a freakin switch, it started running pig rich today. No reason whatsoever that I can find. I started it up to pull it in the driveway, finished rebuilding the wheel cylinders, started it up to move it out and test the brakes. It's running so rich it's missing like crazy. Plugs went from clean/tan to black in a matter of minutes. 

This car is testing my sanity.

Piston in carb may be hanging again.  Are all 6 black or just 3.  If all 6 then maybe that Mr Gasket FPR is the cause. The reviews of that part are not great.

Matt, if you're not working this weekend, feel free to bring it over to my place, and I'll see what I can do to help you.

I'm assuming the FPR is the issue. It's black on all 6. Again. 

I have a Holly 1-4 PSI regulator that I just picked up yesterday, but I've got to find the proper fittings to match my fuel lines on the car.

Thanks Steve, I think I'm busy all weekend (like most) I might have to try and catch up with you soon. Still don't have working turn signals  :LOL:

Yeah, you need to pay me a visit.  :LOL:

Steve is the Georgia SU expert!

Philip, don't start rumors, especially ones that aren't true.  :LOL:
