Re: Fuel Boiling Out Of Carburetor

Does the parts list indicate your car should have the insulator block between the carburetor and the manifold (most years and models do)? If so and it's missing, that may be the answer to your problem; if it's present you might try a thicker one. Only the 356-engined models used a carburetor heat shield but you might consider fabricating one - photo attached courtesy of one of this site's regulars.

Also, have you made sure the manifold heat riser valve is functioning properly or at the least, fully open?
