Sucking noise on shutdown
dlphil10:
Thanks for the replies. There is no charcoal canister on my car (69 LeMans). It made the same gurgling noise immediately after shutdown. It only happens for a few seconds.
There was no vapor and the nozzles were dry for the duration of the sound.
Cliff Ruggles:
Can you at least narrow down where the noise is coming from?
dlphil10:
Yes, my apologies. The noise is definitely coming from the carb. It happens so fast it's hard to get a pulse on where exactly it is, but it sounds like its coming from the fuel bowl.
Cliff Ruggles:
If it's draining some fuel into the intake it would not fire back up well or act flooded if you tried to restart it.......Cliff
