Re: 261 no start
And here is the float level. It Hangs below by about 1/8" without the gasket thickness

Re: 261 no start
I'd swear there should be Some type of o-ring to seal that off....maybe you should put on In the bowl where the seat screws in just for the heck of it and see if that stops it.

Re: 261 no start
Float level Does look a tad high from this angle. But I can't say for sure.

Re: 261 no start
I lowered the float level a bit and put everything back on the truck. Tomorrow I'll try starting it up and see what happens.

Re: 261 no start
Success! It seems like the carb isn't leaking anymore. I made a video of it starting up. Should it sound this rough? Smoke coming from the engine bay?

Re: 261 no start
Turn the screw to the left...shouldn't need more than 1 full turn unless it's WAY in.

Re: 261 no start
Don't want ya' chasing gremlins, but if you decide the issue is somewhere else, take a look at the engine's timing. GM made harmonic balancers with marks at 2, 2:30, and 12 o'clock, if the balancer was replaced with the wrong year, your real timing could be way off. Another possible issue is the harmonic balancer is separating. To test it, place a mark on the rubber part below the timing mark and hit it with a timing light. If it appears to be moving separately from your timing mark, time for a new balancer. The upside, confirming these aren't part of the problem takes under an hour.

Re: 261 no start
I read TJ's reply and I'm curious, have you done a vacuum test recently?

Re: 261 no start
No I have not. It has brand new gaskets on the carb and manifolds but I'm thinking that it could still be a vaccum leak. I'll do a test tomorrow if I have time.
