Fuel issue

Adding a small pump on a switch is what I was originally considering.So far, he has added a small electric fuel pump on two of them....uses a toggle switch to turn them on a few seconds, then back off, vehicles start right up.
Remove the carb and remove the air horn, add fuel ( while on the bench ) and see if you have a leak. This way you will know. Then build the carb ensuring correct float height....can't hurt. Hang in and keep us posted. Many of us are curious....
Turn it on for a few seconds, turn it off, then crank.
The engine would be running off of just the mechanical pump like normal after startup.
It may be a while before I have time to do anything to/with the carb.
I've got about a dozen different projects going, plus it's a little cold now, and I don't have a shop/garage yet(one of those projects, lol).
But I will update this thread with whatever I find at that time.
Thanks to everyone who gave helpful advice.
I greatly appreciate it.
