 Hello all, this is my first post about my new 1974 J-H 5. Carburetors are Stromberg 175CD-2SE. I know nothing about these carburetors yet and have already ordered a carburetor manual to learn. So I need your help.

Today, the vacuum switch behind the rear carburetor is leaking fuel out of the hole in the black cap. I removed it and plugged the vacuum hose with my finger and left the carburetor hose open. At idle, fuel is dripping out of the hose attached to the carburetors. Is that correct? Is fuel always present there?

Thanks,
Claus
