Default Boiling Fuel

Entertained my friends at last weekend’s cars & coffee by showing them how the fuel boils in the sight glasses in my carb bowls.

Engine is a KC 408 with a quick fuel HR-750.

Symptoms also include hard starting (when hot) and bucking/lurching under slow/low throttle conditions.

QFT sells a phenolic ½ carb spacer (part # 300-4000) and a quick cool insulator (part # 300-4013).

Anyone tried either? Not sure I like the looks of the quick cool insulator heat shield…

thanks

Bob
