Took my 56 for a nice drive or at least I was hoping it would have turned out that way. It was running really nicely until it sputtered out in a left turn lane. It wouldn't restart. A couple of really nice guys with tow straps helped pull me into a parking lot. The carb looked a little wet so I let it air out with the throttles open for a few minutes. Tried to restart and I could see gas start gushing from the side of the carb, The air cleaner was back on at this point so I couldn't see exactly where it came from as I quickly went to shut it off but it sputtered out on it's own. To me this sounds like a float issue that let it overflow.
If it is, is this something fairly simple that can be looked into?
