Reviving this thread with a probably stupid question:
On a Rochester carburetor that has been rebuilt at least once (by me), and is now leaking gas anew, what are the most likely sources of the leak(s)?
I'm asking because a neighbor is working on my truck (long story) and says the carb is leaking to the point of smoking with the engine running. We're out of town and I'm trying to decide whether to just buy a new Rochester or Carter carb vs rebuild again or try another maneuver such as the one in this thread. The goal is to drive the truck from our current house to our new house. I hate to throw money/parts at a problem and hate to throw rebuildable parts away.
Any links to other relevant threads are also appreciated, thanks.
