what do yawll think? I just rebuilt my fuel system.
  • running a 4160 750 Holley
  • new niccop hard line
-added a return line from a new added regulator ( was putting out about 9 or 10 lbs so I incorporated the regulator)
- using the mechanical pump
-ran my lines on the outside of the frame with 100 micron filter near the back & 30 micron right before carb.
- rebuilt carb

about to fire up, just got to get gas.
Is there anything I'm missing?

Well, I got the car started after putting a few drops of gas in the carb & it dies after about 7 seconds. it burns the gas I put in & then runs a little longer & dies. I adjusted the regulator & float bowls but no luck. Anybody have any ideas? Thanks

Can also get small squirt bottle like a round ketchup one and fill bowls with fuel thru vent. Helps give the carb a little time to get air out of fuel system.
I bypassed the regulator & going through a 30 micron filter directly to carb & now will not fire up at all. Almost seems like to much gas, I've adjusted fuel bowls a few times & still nothing.Of course battery dies & have3 to charge & wait.
