I Guess I Will Still Have To Play With It Still To Maybe Learn What It Likes. When I Had The One Carb On It, Pump The Gas Twice Fire Run For A Second Then Die, Pump It Twice Fire And It Would Stay Running. It Does Give The Impression That It Is To Rich Apon Trying To Start. Can Taste The Gas But That Maybe Because Im Not Pumping It Enough When Trying To Start It And It Maybe Just Lean Popping Back Though The Carbs Where Im Getting My Gas Flavor. Im So Paranoid Of Flooding It I Have Only Been Pumping It One Full Throttle For Both Carbs (progressive Linkage) Then Trying To Start It. As For Pictures I Dont Know How To Get Any Pictures On This Site. My Camera Phone I Have Only Been Able To Seen To Others E-mail As Of So Far. Any Help???????? Thanks Everyone Scs

The edelbrock I had, if it set very long the fuel bowl would be empty. I had to let the electric pump fill the bowls first.If it's not broke, fix it anyway.

Did you check to see if you have 12 volt to the coil?If it's not broke, fix it anyway.

FE's are notorious bad starters in cold weather. At 30 below with block heaters I've dumped a cupful of gas straight in the carb, then when it starts firing, pedal the gas like crazy until it revs up. I have never seen an FE flooded on a cold day.
