I have a 63 Valiant with a slant 6 and it has a Holley carb that developed a leak at the bowl. I read that the cork gaskets dont hold up well so I went and bought a sheet of Felpro gasket material to make my own. I cut it, installed it and it was sealing fine. Let the engine idle for a good 15 minutes or so and shut it off and it was dry. Left it and came back out about an hour later and it was leaking slightly. The bottom screw worked itself loose so I tightened it and it was fine again. Left it and a couple hours later checked and I had a huge pool of gas on the manifold. What did I do wrong here?
