[Chrysler300] Still won't run - '65 300 carb problem cont.....

["Ryan Hill" <ryan_hillc300@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks to all who responded last week with regards to my fuel delivery 
problem on my 300. Unfortunately, I've had no success in getting the car to 
continue running after burning off the initial prime.

I have replaced the fuel pump and have adequate fuel pressure. The needle 
and seats are funtioning properly, I've rechecked the float level and float 
drop as well as all other adjustments, blown out all passages, and tried 
filling the bowl manually to ensure it isn't a fuel delivery or bowl level 
problem. Still, the car fires up when primed manually or by pumping the 
accelerator then runs out of fuel immediately. If I supply a steady drip of 
fuel manually into the carb it will remain running but as soon as that 
supply is dicontinued, the engine dies. Vacuum seems good, the engine runs 
smooth for the short time it runs.

Before I have the carb looked at by a professional, does anyone have any 
idea what might be the problem? Remember, this carb was functioning well 
prior to rebuilding this engine along with the carb. Also, it seemed to be 
working well when I broke in the cam. Now, without touching anything, there 
is a problem. I'm really getting frustrated, I know it's something simple 
I've overlooked.

Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks to all in advance.
