Lippy...I had a similar problem but with a Holley double pumper fed with a
mechanical fuel pump. After checking coil resistance etc., I traced the problem
to junk between the float needles and seats which caused overfilling of the
float bowls and flooding. I pulled the needle/seat units and cleaned them. I
also found the floats set too high and reset them with the engine running
which is, I believe, better than setting the floats dry with measurement. The
filters were clean so I suspect alcohol must be eating away at something in
the carb. This happened a year ago and has not reoccured.
