This may be novice stuff I'm asking about here but I'm learning as I go...
I cranked my 75 today and found that I had some gas dripping from the bottom of the carb onto the intake on the passenger side and that my PCV valve was hissing louder than I remember. It idled and revved fine but if I put my finger over the PCV valve, the idle dropped. I'm guessing these two are somehow related but wasn't sure. Does this sound like the carb needs a rebuild and/or new gaskets? I wasn't sure if there was some kind of overflow on the carb causing the leak, can't really see exactly where it's coming from. Not really sure where to start.
It's a 302 with an Edelbrock 1404 carb with manual choke and an Edelbrock intake. I can add pics if needed.
