Hi, I have a 1981 Honda Accord Hatchback with a 4cyl 1.8l 5-speed MT.

I purchased a remanufactured carburetor for the car, and installed it pretty flawless. The car started up fine and ran good for the first hour or so as i was checking all the hoses and lines. After that something happened and it DUMPS fuel into the carb and floods it. I cannot keep the car on more than 10 seconds now that it floods so bad... Ive asked everyone and my mechanic has even had the car for 3 weeks now and cant fix it... Please help me out!

Good luck.I hate to say this but I never got a good rebuilt carb from any company. New from honda was there only way to go, but they probably don't make them anymore. Glad I don't work on these anymore.
