Pusher! Thanks for the heads up on the Holley carb. I just called Holley today and will be sending mine back for replacement with a new 650. I noticed the problem last year and early on in the spring where I was having stalling problems and rough idle. I drained the tank and changed the fuel filter thinking it could have been bad gas. Took the carb to a local guy who is a legend in rebuilding carbs and he thinks highly of the Holley brand. When he removed the fuel bowls he noticed metal flaking. He cleaned it as well as he could. Said he had never seen a carb do that especially a newer one like mine. Told me to watch it for any leaking. This past weeken I noticed the car running rough and wanting to stall. I changed the plug wires thinking that could be the problem. They needed replaced anyway. I started the car up and it ran fine for a short period of time. Later in the evening I thought I would take the car out for a test drive. Well, it would start but stall after a second ot two. Called the carb man and told him about the fuel leaking. He told me to go ahead and buy a new one because he didn't like the looks of the finish flaking off like it was. Ordered the new carb at Advance. Came home and saw your post about a bad run of Holley carbs. Again thanks for posting! It saved me $400!
