Re: Help with possible fuel starvation issue

Who's carb? box stock Holley HP, QUick Fuel, CarbShop, Prosystems...???

There is a Holley guy that frequents the engine and drivetrain section, I'll go send him a PM and see if he will drop in on this... but I (not being much of a carb guy) would have to agree with what's been offered already.
BUT,, if you tuned it with the floats well below the site hole, you may find yourself looking for some more dymo time. I've always had issue with the holleys when the fuel level was too low. Once it's 'right' and fuel pressure / flow is 'right... the whole carb seems to be 'different' and you start from scratch with the jetting / pump shot / squirters / bleeds etc.

My 'always the best solution' resource is to put it in a box, send it to:

PRO SYSTEMS
1879 S. Wolf Lake Rd.
Muskegon, MI 49442

And tell Patrick to live test and let you know when it's all fixed up.

Buyt in th emeantime, why don't you lay out how the carb / fuel system is set up, (Squirters, jets, linkage, fuel line size fuel PSI etc....)
