Carb Issues
I bought a Holley Street Avenger 600 CFM a year and a half ago and had problems right from opening up the box. The car ran poorly and after several attempts to adjust it just plain sucked. Called holley within two weeks of purchase and they were no help. I ran the car with pure high test gasoline and put a fuel filter on before and after the fuel pump. Checked the little screen in the carb as well. I finally got around to buying a rebuild kit and tore it down yesterday. NONE of my screws were tight and I am talking about the inner screws. Holley has NO quality control whatsoever period. They have a great product when its put together properly. Next time I will save myself some trouble and tear it down and check everything before I put it on. Thanks for letting me VENT.
