Thread: Edelbrock 1406 floods upon shut down

To techinspector1,

I'm glad to help, that makes my day. Please don't tell anyone that I also bought a new carb after working on the old one, tried carb spacers, etc. and went the same route he did before I finally figured it out. That would spoil my image, lol.

Have a great day,
Milner

I moved my fuel regulator onto the wheel well, and routed the fuel line waaaaay up over the ac box to the fire wall and then to the carb.
I noticed that the header tuber were about 5" from the rt. side frame rail where the steel lines are. so I put heat sheild over that area. It didn't change a thing. The spacer should be here tomorrow, Wednsday. We'll see what happens when I put it on. I think it's the egr passage in the intake causing all the problems. I did put the block offs in when I did the top end in December, but they have small holes in them. Should have fabbed something solid out of sheet metal I guess.
Thanks for the idea's guys!!! It's alway's a pleasure!!!!
Live and learn !!!!
