Holley Carb ?
Finished installing my electric fans yesterday, and thought I'd check to see how they worked Stepped on the throttle to set the choke and started it up. Let it run a little to get it warmed up. Tapped the throttle to lower the idle, and it started to die. (think I released the choke to it's warm setting?) Anyhow, to keep it running I had to keep pressing the throttle and revving it up. Tried to shut it off and reset the choke, but to no avail. Anyhow, during all this I noticed the carb was dumping fuel on the intake. Huh, never done that before! Carb is a 600 Holley, electric choke, mechanical(?) secondaries. What would cause this? Sorry 'bout how long this is. Any ideas?

Re: Holley Carb ?
Is this carb a new part too? Sounds like it could be blowing by the needle and seat, I,E, too much fuel pressure, or a stuck (open) float.
