I have replaced 4 floats since I got my car in 2000. When I drove it home across town right after buying it I got lucky something bad did not happen since when I pulled into the driveway it was regurgitating a lot of fuel out of the front carb. When ever I get a slight miss at idle the first thing I check is for fuel dribbling out of a carb.

I too dreamed of having an E since my 5th birthday when I got a dark blue battery powered Motorific toy model. I finally got mine at 40 and still think it is an amazing car. Time to go for a Sunday drive
