I run a single barrel Holley on an old Ford truck and have had no issues in the last 12 years with flooding as a result of an over filled fuel bowl as a result of excessive fuel pressure.

To make a ridiculously long story short, I started having a problem but it wasn't such a problem that the truck wasn't running, or spilling gas everywhere.

Then the problem got worse. Most people said I needed 1.5-3 pounds pressure. I measured 7 from the mech pump. Set flaot height 10 times. No help
$55 and a trip to Autozone got me a FPR and issue completely gone.

Now I know.
