I did the pressure test on the floats v8 operating them manualy and they shut off the flow of air. I had also replaced both needle valves at the floats first time around and still have the issue of flooding the secondary bowl. I'm going to do a fuel pump pressure test this weekend and see what the pressure is and figure out a volume test on it as well. The flooding secondary occurs quickly Dan, the carb is hot enough to disingauge the choke but not hot enough to start a fire (I hope)when I shut it down for some thinking time. Like I said above, it's like the fuel is by-passing the primary bowl and flooding the secondary. I don't see how a pump will increase pressure over time but who knows, I've seen stranger things...
Thanks all,
Steve
