Well....last week before the crap weather came I took her out for a ride, now as all of you know when the weather is colder these things like to run, And I'm a sucker for a carbureted 351, headers and cold weather!!
Needless to say I opted for a fly by and I was heavy in the RPMs and notice a noise...like a tick but not a valve or a lifter. When I got home I noticed it seemed to come from the carb? I think it may be the diaphragm attached to the carb with the springs in it. I wiggled the rod and started it again and it wasn't as loud but still there. An hour later I moved it in the garage and it was quiet??
BTW, It has a Holley 4160 Carb..
Has anyone had this happen to them?
Thanks!
