Check this out. Put this "great running" 1920 on my friends 64 and it was perfect when it left. He gets home after a 30 minute fwy trip and the thing is leaking gas big time. Takes it to his mechanic and the guy tells him he is lucky to be alive in no less terms. This hole appeared in the accelerator pump circuit, and its a friggin HOLE, not a crack or anything you might expect to see from working 44 year old carb. Where did it come from, previous repair job? Lead plug come out? Area around the hole looked a little leather textured instead of the relatively smooth casting. I though it got so hot it melted! Almost looks like that. It would shoot a jet of gas rearward out his hole whenever he hit the pump, scary!
