Bob King 'Bolter B Joined: Mar 2023 Posts: 120 Edgewood WA USA	So the Carter carb has been rebuilt, float level set to specs and installed. Fired it up and still have the same issue. Too much fuel pushing past the float. I installed a new fuel pressure regulator and no change. Even with it set at 1psi. Anybody???? 1946 Chevy 1/2 ton "patina" pickup with a 1953 235 engine, otherwise all stock and unmolested!
