    Thinking to put a new gas tank in my 66 Satellite.

    I've read that the red toilet seals, approx the same size, hold up

    440 not pumping fuel after new fuel pump installed

    After running up to temp in heat, I could hear my afb boiling, car at 195. It would boil over into the engine. Wood insulator stopped it. Blocking crossover also, using non oxy fuel?

    Yes, Edelbrock performer, timing was the biggest issue, needed to bump it up

    PCV Vacuum Source

    Not to get " off topic" but plastic fuel filters are the #1 cause of engine fires, especially when banging around.. . But of course, it's up to you to change or not

    Power Valve question

    I had the same, I ran a front pv, then plugged the rear, and went up a few sizes. I never tried no front pv.

    Rough start and fuel leak - advice please

    Interesting, that's actually low. I'd guess you've got a hanging up float, bad needle seat, or possibly warped upper part of the carb ( I've seen that on a afb)

    Rough start and fuel leak - advice please

    Check your fuel pressure. That or those needle/seats are bad

    Not sure on rpm, no tach, but I'd guess 700 ish. Yes, about 2 turns on screws. It will die now with one turned in

    The timing seemed to fix most issues, However, if I cant get it to idle nice , I'll try that.

    440 still idles with screws turned in

    What's the reason for that? Flooding out the performer @ idle? I was able to get it to run on the idle circuit finally but upping timing like everyone said, how ever, can't get it to " lope " nicely. Plugs look good, good power, no bog. I put 5 lb springs in the metering rods, and tried #3s too

    Sorry for late response, yes, 6.5 psi, new pump

    440 still idles with screws turned in

    Well, so far so good. Jumped timing up to 25, and was able to back idle down. Better vac , 11ish, but still sounds like it's missing at idle, not loping. Power is WAY better. Gonna install the FBO kit, and 1 light spring.

    Yep, this is the first thing I'm going to try, tho still scared of that much timing, but I'll try. If it helps, then he probably will go for the FBO kit
