SABOTAGED

I have been having problems with the car when just started. I figured it was the electric choke, but was more concerned about getting the body work done first.
Yesterday, the car had problems starting, seemed flooded. I opened the hood to check on the choke and found a couple problems.
Seems my car was SABOTAGED (no I am not kidding)
Not really sure when or by who. Near as I can remember the very last time the car was not totally in my control was the last car show I went to. Hood up, Hood lights on and I am not with the car. I am over getting a t-shirt.
Again, this is the ONLY time the car was not in my control.
Someone pulled the gas tank vent off the back of the air filter and attached it to the choke nipple on the Edelbrock 1406 carb. Does not sound like much, but that accounts for ALL the problems I have had the last month or so.

So from now on, I will never leave the car unattended when the hood is up. If I need to leave the car, the hood goes down. Period, End of discussion
Reminds me I want to put hood pins on it

Hard to imagine someone could get away with screwing with someone's car at a show without someone calling them on it.
Then again...

Maybe you were sleep screwing up. :D
