what a hidden surprise! today was the final straw with adjusting my 4160 holley on my 06 outback 310h.p. i pulled the front bowl only to see that the whole interior of the bowl has some kind of coating or sealer, clearish in color,flakeing off in small pieces,probably of which is getting under seat causing flooding and or rough idle. The metering block has none of this coating, so leads me to believe this was applied at holley factory. I remember a post somewhere, where new gas with ethonol was eating coatings on carb parts so could this be a promblem solution ? NOT. Thanks for imput as i hope for some ideas when i contact companies to get to bottom and at least bowl(s) replacement. :roll:
