I m sorting my stock MK1a Tiger, trying to get it back on the streets after ~ 3 decades of storage in a barn. Current focus is on carburation. It has a remanufactured Holly to replace a worn-out Moto

If it's boiling over Holly makes a "heat proof" spacer that goes under the carb. If that is truly what is happening, the spacer will solve the problem. A few yrs. ago on the list someone else report

That could make sense. If the float was stuck open the pressure in the line could flood the carb even with the car parked. M In a message dated 7/16/2010 10:06:33 P.M. Eastern Daylight Time, slaifma

Have you checked to see if 1) your needle is "junked up" & sticking? 2) your Float level's OK? 3) your carb's float still floats? Finally, is the fuel simply boiling in the bowl and overflowing the v

As you said you drove a short 6 miles and there was bubbling gas. If this car sat for 30 years the gas tank may be full of debris. If it is getting past the filter (is there a filter?) you could be h

Allan - I had a similar problem (intermittent flooding) with a HiPo Mustang running its original (and rebuilt) Holley 4Bbl. Turned out to be a float that was fuel soaking and sinking. If you didn't d

I vote for a sticking float. If it has been sitting for that long and you did not clean it out well, it would be remarkable if there were not some ancient residue in there. Tod B382002384LRXFE _____

If the carb floats are sticking, or not shutting off when back-pressure is sensed by the fuel pump, it may starve the engine out, and leave an un-purged residue of gas. I don't exactly understand wh
