XFGHIA747 76 Posted October 11, 2014 Well thats a non adjustable float level plate I presume float levels must be to high for fuel to piss out of there id look to see weather there adjustable as I have never had a holley that hasn't been adjustable 1 uterus reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
uterus 80 Posted October 11, 2014 It runs perfectly fine thats the weird part. Can I just seal up that top part with some glue? Just asking is all as I took the 4 bolts off had a look the float sits level and there are 2 screws either side on the ends im assuming they are the air mix screws as I screwed them right in and then I coudnt get car to start until I screw them back out to where they were and then it stopped leaking as much.

FORD_MAN 1,026 Posted October 11, 2014 under the round plate is the fuel supply to needle & seat. (internal adjusted float level.) float sitting level is correct. I have the same leaking problem on my 6210 650 DP Holley 1 uterus reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

XFGHIA747 76 Posted October 11, 2014 If float level is right you could just bang some araldite or something on it should be all good.. to set the air bleeds( two small screws either side of bowl I normally wind all the way in then two turns out both sides, as they should be the same then wind one side in until it stars to run rough or you notice change of tone then 1/8 a turn back out then count how far that is to all the way in say 1-3/4 turn then set otherside to the same as this, should be all good Hope you can understand my shit dribble..
