    Question Flooding 94's

     



    Yep I guess it was inevitable......My dual 94's seem to have a problem. I have rebuilt them with everything in the rebuild kit and it appears that at idle there is still fuel dripping from the air horns. Good news is NO leaks on the outside.

    What I have done.
    1. Fuel pressure is regulated at 2 PSI
    2. Float level has been checked and if anything is probably a touch low.
    3. Needle and seats are clean as.
    4. Jets are 49's

    What i think it could be.
    1. My power valves opening too early.
    2. Something else I have no idea about.

    My configuration.
    SBC + Edelbrock Performer + HEI Don't know anything else much about the internals but it used to run fairly well...

    Surely somone has this setup. Please let me know the config of you 94's.

    Thanks
    Andy.

    Question

     



    Seems the power valves are o.k. I ran it with the top off and it definately shuts the PVs up. But fuel still seems to be steadily dripping from the central fuel nozzles. Its not flooding causing the problem cause I had the top off of it at the time and only a bowl full of fuel to keep it going. STILL DRIZZLING! What is causing the main nozzles to drip? They are not meant to come in at idle??? how is the fuel getting up to there? I understand fuel needs to go past that point to get to the idle circuit, so I checked the gaskets in the air horn and they are fine.
    HELP

    I would love to be able to set the idle Denny. I suppose while its running it would be about 600. Hard to say with the big gut full of driblling fuel making it a bit difficult to regulate.

    Thanks Denny that site has some good detailed drawings. I am out of time to work on it now but will be back into it this weekend. I will update his thread then. Once again thanks for the link. I have quite a few more things I want to try.
