Re: Gramma's Car: the new project!
As mentioned -- "I have querying all the Jedi Masters about possible solutions and I found it today. Cliff Ruggles mentioned in an email that he had seen this sort of thing happen in aftermarket air cleaners when the lid was too close to the top of the carburetor. All this time I had been thinking it can't be that simple...well it was".
This issue has been around awhile -- some carbs vent tubes are "square" cut ... flat on top and some are angled. If an the air cleaner restricts vent air flow that will raise heck with the carb. Some Holley carb vents are flat and some are angle cut -- I would believe Holley went to angled vents to prevent air cleaner lids from blocking air flow. Just sayin' ... TAZ
