Cab, I wish it were that simple but I THINK I am dealing with other issues - at least, I think I am-the backfiring .If sinking the carbs will remove the backfiring I'll be so happy but I don't think it will.
Eljaro- I added a photo for you. I removed the four carbs in anticipation of removing the intake BUT when I look at the gasket edge on the manifold and down all the intake runners the gasket seems to be seated and shows no damage. My "problem" carb, when removed had the rear gasket slightly wet. Could the leak be here? The off side bank is the one that seems to be backfiring the most at this point and that's where this carb sits.
Finally- Is it acceptable to reuse the gaskets under the carbs? Say yes. They look fine just showing the compression of the carb bottom. Regards, Jon
