Carburetor Leaking Issue
I’m having some leaking problems on a Holley Carburetor. At first I thought it was coming from the o-rings, which I replaced but that wasn’t the issue. The gas is leaking out from a “plug” located on the driver side of the carburetor. I’m pretty sure that is plugged because it’s meant for another feed system for a high performance carburetor but they plugged it at the factory because it’s not being used. Well this is where it’s leaking and I’m not sure what to do about it. I’ll leave a picture of where it’s leaking and let me know if you have any ideas?

Re: Carburetor Leaking Issue
That’s just a normal plug used to plug off the internal passage they machined in the bowl for the fuel flow to the needle/seat.
That plug is just slightly oversize for the hole and they just tap that plug in there. Usually they don’t leak. Just JB weld it. |
