Default Re: Hesitating Holley

Matt;
Good call! When I reinstall it this time I will put my hand over the carb to see if the idle speed picks up, and also spray a little carb cleaner around the gasket areas. A small vac leak would indeed create a hesitation.

One thing I noticed yesterday was that if I moved the clear acc. pump cam to the number 1 hole instead of the number 2 hole, I could see a 'more' immediate shot of fuel from the squirter. I did not drain the fuel from the bowls right away, this way I could recreate the scenario on the bench. So, I'm anxious to reinstall the carb to see if that helped as well.

So little time to work on these things, especially with 21 month old Benjamin trying to climb under the car every time I turn around [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] Kids are a joy, he can't really talk yet but makes the engine rev / burnout sounds! I have no idea where he learned that from [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/naughty.gif[/img]
