I have been struggling getting my 360 running in my Javelin but finally got it fired today and broken in. My problem is that it won't idle now and when it stalls I can hear and smell gas running into the secondarys. I have a brand new Edelbrock Thunder Series 650 that unfortunately went through some bad backfires because I had the timing screwed up.
My question is; Have these backfires and subsequent fires (which I had to smother with a rag about 10 times today when I was trying to get it to idle) affected anything in my new carb? After all I went through and the money I spent to get this car running I am not against buying another carb. Or do I just need to check the float and/or get a fuel pressure regulator?
Any advice will be much appreciated.
