I just had a 600 Holley go dead rich and first thought was needle and seat o rings, changed them out (they were in bad shape) and still rich. New power valve brought it back aroundmine wasn't just rich, it was dumping gas down into the crank case and would not stay running unless you floored it,but im putting new pv and n&s in it but im using the old carb i got back off my buddy
You may want to check the float (s) on the old carb, possibly has a pinhole, and taking on fuel, which would prevent it from "floating", which could cause excessive fuel inside the float bowl(s), and cause it to come out the vent tubes.i took a small screwdriver and a flashlight and moved the float through the sight plug hole and it seemed to be floating and working right,then i took it apart and no gas was in the float. plus this carb is only a few years old,it just sat for about 9 months.i believe its the needle and seat like everyone said. the old carb from the 80s is the good one i just now put on.its the new one from 2017 thats giving me problems
