Alright, here is my newest problem. When I let off the gas to turn a corner (not stopping) the car will stall. It will start right back up. Idle is at +- 1000rpm warm. Any ideas? Thanks for any help

Reason: Will you place in the tech section? sorry wrong place
Any changes within the fuel system lately? Tank, lines connections? I'm thinking fuel pressure/return hoses?
Changed the fuel filter lately?
I'm not an expert on carbs so someone else will have to lend thier expertise in that arena.
It's always something, isn't it! Just when you finish something, another issue pops up. Drives me crazy! Almost want to just leave it sit sometimes and not drive it at all. Because if I do, something might happen! Naaa! Gotta drive it!
Good Luck!

fuel filter is clean, no new changes to fuel system. Had a pressure problem but I think that is fixed. The problems have to run out sooner or later....I hope

I ran a Holley once that would flood the engine everytime I hit the brakes hard. Checked the float level a couple of times, always correct. Finally, I set the float level lower on the secondary bowl, and everything worked fine. If you have a regular Holley, you can buy plastic vent tubes that go inside the bowls to fix this. If you have the spread bore Holley--Q jet replacement-- they are different and there are no parts for this.
