Hello, everyone:
This is a first for me. This AFB was rebuilt by
Jim McGowan - super job. After installing on the engine, I began recycling the
engine with break-in oil, 12 times to temp. and cooling down, for 41/2 hours. I
went to start the car two weeks thereafter and it wouldn't kick over. I changed
the entire fuel system to the carb, reverse flushing the fuel line after the
line was disconnected from the tank. No starting. I took the carb apart and
found, for lack of another word, slimly goo (see photos).
The tank is new and I sealed it with tank
sealer some time ago. Could this goo be the result of deteriorating sealer over
time?
Any thoughts?
Best,
Ron Kurtz
