Listen here sgieldon if you're not going to help me then shut the **** up. If you had any sense you would know i have already removed the god damned Rats nest ya ****** idiot. Now dont get me wrong, i love spending money, but like ive said ive wasted more than $500 buying **** for this car, and right now i dont want to spend another $500 on some **** that i have no clue if it is the problem. So yes when i get the ******* car running, ill be buying headers and a ******* holley just to please me and your little ******* ego.
Now....i am going to focus on the fuel system, and when the temp is where i ******* want it, ill start working on it again. :rant:

Im sorry man, i lost it. i accept. But i now have a question.....i believe the carb isnt getting enough fuel. when the car is running (poorly) the fuel in the sight glass is level. does this mean the carb is getting enough fuel? do need to be looking deeper, internally now?

Good Morning Hereonout;
Again Sorry about that! I have a habit of not reading the whole story and this one taught me a lesson. Read The Fine Print:
I had the same problem when I installed the Holley Setup. I had a bitch of a time keeping it running and also did not see any fuel in the Clear Fuel Filter. Even though this is not the stock Nikki it has the same princible. Even with a Fram G-12 installed before the Fuel Pump and a Clear 99.9% Micron Filter before the Carb I ended up with Rust showing up in the Clear one.
(Sometimes there would be Fuel in it and other times not).
Rust ended up keeping Fuel from getting to the Carb.
I had gone through 4-Filters, drained tank, and blew compressed air threw the lines.
This may not be any help, but I thought it maybe something to toss in the Hat.
Another thing I discovered is that if the Fuel Return Line is Plugged it sometimes will
mess with the flow. At least that's what happened to me.
Good Luck
steve
P.S. Are you all still Freezing your asses off down there??? I was in Nashville 2 Thursdays ago and got to be part of this 1st major snow storm they had in 10yrs. No Fun!!!

Well its getting back up into the 40's and 50's, but yeah, it has been quite cold. nothing is showing up in the clear filter, not even a speck of dust/rust. odd. so there isnt any trash reaching the filter, im just wondering if something may be blocking the lines, not rust or little trash, something solid, maybe? if it was trash i would think i would see SOMETHING, wouldnt u think? then again it may be the return line, but i will be cleaning out the fuel lines, flow and return. hopefully after the 14th of feb ill have some cash, maybe, you know how women can be. anyways after the 14th ill be setting aside more cash for further investments. if the fuel lines are bad enough, ill just buy new metal fuel line and bend it, done it before, not too hard at all w/ the right tools. but like i said, im focusing on ther fuel system for now. and i got the file on how to remove rats nest, but i want to know still, what can i remove on the carb itself, and what HAS to stay.
