carb gasket
I have an edelbrock 650 carb on my truck, and on the drivers side under the linkage im leaking fuel on to my intake manifold, so my questions are can i just unbolt the 4 bolts and pull my carb off, and also what kind of gasket do i use? I also have a carb spacer but not sure what brand, is there a certain gasket to use for the spacer and manifold? sorry the questions are so cluddered together!

Depends on why its leaking and how loose the bores are, the last edelbrock I ran went about 3 yrs and it was done, does it leak while running? Probably not sutting fuel off with the float, chunk of something holding it open a little would be my guess, too much fuel pressure pushing the level to high possibly. probably wouldn't run if it did that for very long, so I am guessing it does it after shutting it off. Could be the same thing or fuel level is too high also from an improperly set float..
