OK - I checked the archives and can not find anything re: leak / seep at the accelerator pump arm / link. After a run, I can feel under the carb bowl and collect an oily (I use Marvel Mystery Oil in the gas) seep on my finger. I don't smell gas fumes in the seep, and the color is "reddish". The carb does not leak at the gasket as many Rochesters do - this occurs at the link. I rebuilt this carb with a NAPA kit and gas mileage is better. I can't figure how the carb is leaking at this area. Floats are set to specs and do not have pinhole leak. I have an oil bath filter, but this is a light oil (MMO?)
