Friend of mine has a problem with his 4160. He has never started the car, he says he has spark, but the fuel is puking from the vents on both sides. I haven't personally touched the adjustment, but it sounds like his floats are sticking or just not adjusted correctly. Been a while since my hands have worked on a Holley but I am more mechanically inclined than he is...What should I mess with first?

he doesnt have a gauge hooked up for his pressure but if it gushes out then thats a plus right?...plus as meaning the pump is still doing its job.
He said he has rebuilt it once himself...and once to a goober who swore he knew what he was doing.

he has a stock fuel pump...I told him way back when to get the clear sights for the bowls so he can get a better view of where he has to adjust the float to...
