    I need some help everyone. I bought a 61 tbird this weekend and the car has been sitting longer then i have been alive. I have gone through the whole system and got everything going. The only thing that is holding me back is now the Holly carb I put on from my old 62 country sedan is flooding. I have adjusted the fuel and air on the carb and even pinched the fuel lines to limit the fuel but yet it still floods. Any ideas as to what I need to do to limit the fuel or is it that I should just rebuild the carb? Thanks all

    Check your float levels. Clean or replace the needle and seat assembly. Check for a hole in the float. Check back after that!
