If you put a SE engine in it are you converting it to EFI or running a carb setup?BTW the SE was only made in 84 and 85.83's only came in 12a form.SE's also have bigger brakes and a 4x114 bolt pattern which makes aftermarket wheels easier to find.The SE also has a nice LSD. :yum:

ok get this. the vent and check valve goes to numerous hoses and pipes and ****, one of which may go to the carb....one line goes from the vent check valve to thefuel tank....now the check and cut valve is located by the gas tank and has two hoses coming from it, if its by the gas tank u would assume it would have something to do w/ the fuel flow, so .....possibilities are arising.

I got a question.....when you take off the upper part of the carb, and you have the floats attached, are they supposed to be even...i mean, the same amount of movement in each float. the one has the amount you would assume would be right, i do, and the second has virtually no movement. So i guess what i am asking is, are the two floats supposed to be the same in the movement, the same range of play?

Forget the floats. Forget the too much fuel. i think now its not getting enough, i think it hasnt been getting enough from the begining.....how would i find where the problem is....somewhere in between the fuel tank and the carb i would think....right?

Depends if the carb is all good makes sure everything is all right the pump might be the problem but check the fuel filter first.
