Hey guys,



I got my engine in. Basicall what the deal is, i bought this white 85 gsl for 250 and 2 12a engines came along with it. I have no history about any of this so everything i do is up in the air.



The master cylinder was rusty inside and the fuel pump needed some help to get going so i guess it had been sitting for awhile.



Well the car is 100% stock and I have some questions about the carb.



Which 2 of the 4 barrels are the Pri. I'm guessing the smaller ones. The reason I ask is because when I try to crank her for several secs the 2 larger barrels have fuel sitting in them. Is this ok? No fuel in the 2 smaller. The glass window on the front of the carb is showing half full. This morning when I checked things the fuel in the 2 larger barrels was gone and the window is now almost full.



I seem to be getting some fuel but I'm guessing not much because she just wont start. If I pour some fuel in the smaller barrels it sounds more like it wants to start.





Anyone have any comments?



Thanks...Scott
