Speaking of carbs....

Getting ready to put new exhaust in, modifying the industrial tins has been a real pain and slowed me down. I had occasion to put my fingers in the exhaust ports of the engine and discovered that three of the areas were dry, a little sooty, but dry. However one was wet and the moisture turned out to be gas.

This is the drivers side rear port.

The Dellorto, there are two, that feeds that side has given me intermittent problems with flooding after backing off from acceleration.

The car hasn't run in a couple months as I have been replacing/upgrading several things.

Check your float height, Bob. I'd also look at the condition of the float as well (saturated, etc?). Replacing the needle and seat might be a good idea, too. CB should have everything you need.
