this summer in central FL,my eddy went to flooding every time I drove it

swithed to a Q-jet it went about a month till the same thing

put a kit in they eddy and its fine now

I found a lot of varnish and grains of rust colerd crap all in it

same thing in the Q-jet

they switch gas and I have had no more probs since

I would soak it,give it a good blast of air to clean passages just for good measure anyways IMO

with the price of gas I going back to the Q-jet, its much better on the MPGs,I was at 19 mpgs in a truck and down to 12-13 with the eddy

just a change in carbs is a big diif
