Re: hot starting & fuel?



It's the passage cast into the manifold,under the carb, that provides heat on cold start-up...but also really heats up the carb base when at operating temp. Some carbs don't like the extra heat, especially on hot soak. The fuel is heated in the bowls ,and ,boils over into the venturies and down into the intake runners, causing flooding on hot start-up. Attached is a pic of the exhaust X-over in the intake....

What do you mean by heat x over? I found some old insulation in the back of the intake when I got it, it was stuffed into the back in a cavity

Thick carb gasket works too...as does blocking the heat X-over in the intake, if you don't need the heat.

Subject: hot starting & fuel?


I'm starting a new subject topic. Jacob had asked about delayed starting when his 1964 Chrysler engine is hot.

Modern "gas" is designed with fuel injected systems in mind.

I'm wondering if that fuel pump heat shield Don, Nick and Rich have reported on is something Jacob should consider?

Thanks,
Gary H.

...Its got 110k miles. Fires right up.... when the motors hot it takes a second to start. Usually If I just keep it cranking it'll fire. I haven't done a tune up yet since I bought it...idk if that's the problem but I hear something about gas boiling off. Maybe y'all can help me or steer me in a direction. Thanks!
