I installedmy just rebuilt 4100 on my Galaxie, and it ran well for two days, untill this Monday, whan the car started with decreasing idle, and abig flat spot. I took the horn cover of and noticed the secondary bowl was flooding big time. Took the carburetor from the car, and examinated the float/needle assembly. All perfect and brand new.

Decided to adjust the float to lower the fuel level on the bowls a little bit. Tested the sealing before installing the carb back, and it was perfect, no leaks both, between the needle assemblys and the carburetor body, and at the needle itself.

Reinstalled the carb, and it worked good for about 5 minutes, when it started flooding again.

That's very odd. The Motorcraft 2100 I had running before never had flooding problems.

Any ideas?????
