Hi all, I have a restored 1973 Cuda 340 4 speed, with an Edelbrock 650 AVS 2 carb and while it runs good, during operation, we are getting a gas smell inside the car. Wondering if it is a Timing Issue, running to rich? Appreciate your help. Jim
Thanks man, appreciate your advice !If the carb is not tuned you will have excess fuel going through combustion process so it still comes back to tuning .
Will do, both are new.Check the fuel filler seal, also your trunk lid weather strip
Thanks will do.Have checked under the sealing rear seat & transition hump the mufflers are pretty well right below also the rocker sills have holes the fumes can come up behind the rear interior panels
Thanks man !Not to sound like a dick but "new" doesn't mean working (or sealing in this case) which I am sure you know. With old cars its kind of tricky because you are used to new cars that don't have much smell at all. I remember tuning my 70 Challenger when I put an EFI 6 pack on it and thinking initially something was wrong because of the smell but then realized that was "old car" smell... LOL
