I recently cleaned my carb for a 71 k5 blazer, the truck that sat 5 years. I put mmo in the plug holes turned the motor. Didnt have a spark. Found why and fixed it. Now that i do have a spark i went to fire the motor up and she kicked over a second but gas blew out the top of my carburator. Looked like a blowhole. I adjusted and tried again with same result poof. looked like an exauhst cloud but was gas bursting out the top. if i keep pumping the gas it keep blowing and will stay on a second but i know this is not good. Can somebody help me. email me if u can at helton3181  aol  or i can give u phone number to text if somebody seriously can. Or just post thru here back to me. I really need some help with this one

Ok that sounds right to me, i tested the spark plug wires yesterday with an ohmeter and got no readings. Dont really know why unless they are bad and broke one plug. not sure if i put the other 7 in all the way because i left them loose so i could change them easily later. By shortcutting i think i ran into more problems so im going to go get some plugs make sure if its timed right and then try again.
