I recently took my car out for a ride to work.
It ran fine. Went to lunch and sprewed Black smoke. And, all the way home it spewed black smoke. There was an assortment of misfires, pops and very strong burning fuel odors.
As it was I went through about 6.5 gallons of gas in 33 miles. And I was not getting on it. There is NO gas spewing out the vents as a stuck needle and seat might suggest. It does have forty year old brass floats.
So, the carb is a older 3310, 780 CFM on top of my 358. When running right, this engine does very well.
I was wondering if those of you that may have had more than your share of experience could suggest what might be the problem.
I was thinking the power valve is stuck just a little before closing or the floats are sinking and the fuel bowl level is very high.
Any help would be appreciated.
