After 4 years, I finally got the engine back in the car. I started it, then found fuel dripping, almost running from both ends of the transfer tube that passes fuel to the rear float chamber.
When I turned the tube between my fingers it resisted a little at first then turned freely and also the tube slides smoothly back and forth. The leaks stopped completely, so I guess it was just that the o-rings had dried out.
I will have to replace the o-rings to take no chances with fire, but has anyone else experienced this?
Holley is an 1850-3
