I made another video, this one of me changing the accelerator pump on my Holley 4150.

That link was messed up for me for some reason, I couldn't click on it.

Good video. I'm curious why you have to change your gaskets so often though? Is that a Holley thing?

Thanks for letting me know about the link. I updated it.

I’m not sure why the front bowl needs so much attention. The rear bowl never leaks. I wonder if maybe that accelerator pump was leaking all along, and I was messing with it when I didn’t have to…

After putting in sniper I don't think I'll ever do carb again.

Since you seem versed in this ancient technology any chance you could help me get my leaf blower started? :rolleyes:

Nah. Driving is more fun than rebuilding carbs. Been there, done that & the tee shirt is worn out.
