Hey all, bought this car a while ago, in the process of getting it running now.

First thing I did was put a fuel pump in it (walbro 255) and fix the wiring in the engine bay so that it turned on properly.
So where I'm at now is I'm getting fuel,spark, and timing seems to be right. But the fuel pressure drops to zero within 30 seconds of being turned off. Car will start and run for about 4-5 seconds after sitting for a while, and if you pull the plugs they're wet with gas. Car also smells of gas when cranking.

Already threw a new fpr on it and it still leaks down.

Is it the walbro possibly just forcing too much fuel through it or something? Fuel pressure on the rail only reads 39.
