fixed my fuel leak but now stalls at abything more than 50% throttle
Finally fixed my fuel leak on an 89 camaro 305 engine. Now my engine stalls at anything more than 50% throttle. I have a holley carb. Can someone tell me how to tune this carb or direct me to a site? I messed around with my float and needle a bit, would that cause any tuning issues?

yup, messing with your carb nomatter what kind it is, is bad if you don't know how to do it properly, of course theres always thirdgen.com, which will probably pop up in acouple replies.
The best thing to do is think about how experienced you are with carbs, if you can say your experienced, then usually thirdgen.com helps, but if your like me, then open your wallet, and sigh cause your wallets empty, then learn how to fix it yourself using the tech articles on thirdgen.com ~_^
Seriously though, if your worried (as most of us would be) and you have the money, just take it to a shop, its not much of a problem, so it shouldn't cost much.
I would stop over a thirdgen.com, read abit, I'm not sure of any other links....
Hope it helps

It sounds like your dumping to much fuel into the engine. Your going to have to change the secondaries to dmp less fuel. I dont know much about carbs but I bet thats your problem.
