It looks like your carb is dead-headed. Is that ok to do to the Nikki? I need to dead-head mine as my application does not have a return line.

Thanks, but that's not my car. It is a friend of mine's. He is actually my UPS
deliveryman.

It was recently totaled by an old lady taking a stop sign.
He's looking for a new chassis to swap it into.
