Just like any carb that has its float setting too high and or the float not set right to compensate for todays fuel and it’s expansion rate with heat , you will see the air horn gasket get wet and at that point you might see fuel dribbling out of the booster ring.

In short this is not a condition that is seen only Rochester 2 bbl carbs.

I also need to ask if you in fact do have the right air horn gasket?
