Bought a T/A just before SOB............ran great at SOB. Got it home and it sucked. Warranty'd it out with a new last month and today it crapped out. Put my old 1850s back on to get home. Pulled the float bowls and the coating on the metering blocks is flaking off........I'll post a pic tomorrow.

Is anyone else having this prolem or is it just me and I need to accept the fact that God hates me?

Brad

Yes it did........I'll post some pic in the AM. I do not understand the reason for coating the inside of the carb.

Looks like Holley has a problem. I was wanting to upgrade to a T/A when I get home, but now I don't think I will until the problems are worked out.

What does Holley have to say?
