Leaky carb

["Ken Hitchcox" <kenlipo@domain.elided>]

Ross and Mike,

When I had a 2210 on my 345, it would drain the float bowl in about a week 
also. Exactly 29 pumps of the pedal while cranking it over and the thing 
would fire right up.

So, instead of doing the right thing, I threw on a 2300. Fires right up 
everytime, even when sitting for a week. So, I'm guessing it doesn't have to 
be a fuel pump thing. Might want to check your vacuum lines and make sure 
they are all happy and in the right place. Mine are hopelessly f**ked up. 
But it runs good mostly.

ROSS SAID-
My 2 bbl 345 has come up with a new problem. If it sits for more than a week
or two (I haven't narrowed it further, 1 week is OK -  2.5  is not) it 
looses
all the gas in the bowl.

MIKE REPLIED-
I'm saying fuel pump.  I have had a similar problem, and it was mainly fuel
pump.  Once the diaphragm goes in the pump, the fuel starts leaking back.
