32 ADFA Carb Rebuild Issues On 1975 Fiat 124 Help

Post by Flyboytha1 »

Just finished a rebuild on a 32 ADFA Carb on a 1975 124 Spider car would start up every time with no issue's sense I've rebuilt the top half drove it about 4 or 5 times bought the carb used ran it as is, first i started getting the engine cutting off on me when going into 3rd gear like lost of power, after that happen a couple times figured it was time to rebuild the carb as it was going to have t happen sometime down the line anyways.

Rebuilt followed the steps installed over the weekend got it running again but after about 4 minutes started smelling gas this wasn't happen before which threw me for a loop, tracked down the gas smell seems it was coming from the bottom of the canister located in photo #1 so i unbolted the canister and also replaced the fuel line that connected there at the bottom along with the other (2) that's connected to the canister left the canister unbolted had my wife start the car so i could see what was happening in the canister area, seems maybe the hose fixed that issue, but now there seem to be gas accumulating in the carb on the opposite side of the choke side, car starts runs for about 2 minute slowly idles down then dies out, has anyone had this happen or is it possible somethings not working corrcetly.

I'm not sure if this little speed up control assy. piece should be pushed completely up or should it be as it looks in the photo below, if i push it up by hand it pops in then slowly pops back out not sure if it's working correctly or needs to be adjusted.

Also not sure if it could also be fast idle port that's the issue cause it's port not plugged or caped or connected to anything

I used this photo to run the carb when i first installed it, and used it cause there's no need for smog.
