Dan. The fuel appears to be coming to be coming out of carb up there. Which I think is just leaking from bad carb gaskets. The fuel leaking out of fuel pump from line to carb was the concern. I’m going to try thread sealer on that. But the hissing when gas pedal being floored with loss of power I seem to hear that by my feet. If that vacuum line is leaking would it in addition hiss and cause engine to bog down. And can I plug vacuum line going to cab for now till I get wiper repaired. I was showing in pictures where lines were going to help decipher if fuel pump also had vacuum like Otto was asking. Thanks Glen
