Easiest Way to Unstick Float in Carter AFB (old gas)??? - 10/30/14 12:16 AM
I haven't driven my 1974 Road Runner in a couple of years (I know, shame on me). I added new gas to the old. The car started and runs, but the gas is coming out the top of the carb (1990's Carter AFB Competition Series on a 318). I just want to drive the car this week before winter sets in and I don't want to get into a new carb or carb rebuild if I can help it. What's the easiest way to get that float unstuck? Tear into it from the top? Pull the carb and soak it? Dump fuel injector cleaner in the gas tank and let the sucker run until it cleans itself out?
