Re: Q jet Question
Mark, If using the big needle and seat (I think it is 0.135") in your q-jet, try running no more than 4-5 psi max, the float bowl will stay full. Higher psi never worked well on my 455 Pontiac either.

Re: Q jet Question
Mark,
I would try another gauge, if you can't find one , turn the pressure down to 4 lbs and see how that runs & feels ? If it works , it may get you by for this weekend .... If it doesn't work, adjust in 1/2 lb increments till it get better... Could try another carb ? Also , try ; turning on the pump & look down into carb to see if it's bleeding over with too much pressure ? ........... Good Luck .........
