Yesterday I wanted to get my Pontiac Catalina, Bj 1973 out of 6 months of hibernation. Battery in, key turned upside down, several times torpedoed and she ran short and then went out. I didn’t get it anymore… carburetor was probably flooded. Was there again today… new attempt, she shook herself briefly and no more. I noticed that with an open air filter gasoline is splashing out of the small hole on the carburetor, so without giving gas, only at the organ. I usually handle them like this, push through 2x gas, then start. When standing up for a while, she’s ticking again and again… I haven’t found out the procedure yet. Thank you for your help!
