Reply to "Electric Fuel Pump to Prime carb after car sits for period of time"

Mine is controlled by the Ignition Controller which "ramps" the EP down once the car is running.

Just turning the ignition to "run" without starting it and giving it a few minutes for the carb floats to adjust after a long time off and not running, is fine for me.



Webers don't have the same issues with drying out the gaskets like Holley's do since the reservoir is cast into the bottom portion of the carb. You just need to verify that the inlet valves aren't stuck and if you switch away from the Viton seat valves to the glass ball valves that 99% likely eliminates that issue altogether.



As you can see by the interior shot, I did a lot of work cleaning up the mess on the console and dash.

I just had a traumatic experience in finding a nice location for the electric parking brake switch location. It took me weeks to decide where to put it.

It eventually went into the location for the instrument panel dim switch which par for the course, after ONLY 50 years, kicked the bucket.



4460 isn't a beast. It's just misunderstood and needs nurturing, sensitivity. acknowledgement of it's sophistication and potential. Is that too much to ask?
