After a 20-30 minuit drive around town , on a very hot day only I park the Charger back in the garage, I usally open the hood to make sure everything is ok.
I noticed the front discharge nozzle (squirt er) on my Holley 950 d.p. every 2-3 seconds it squirts a little gas for a few minuit's, is this caused by  the fuel in the
carb bowl is almost at its boiling point  :shruggy:
68 Charger, slowly in the works, 451 c.i. approx. 535 hp @ the flywheel, so far best time in the 1/4
11.21 @ 119 mph, full exhaust, stock suspension, 4:10s @ 3640 pounds.

Remember the average response time to a 911 call is over 4 minutes.

The average response time of a 357 magnum is 1400 FPS.

Check your float level and accelerator pump adjustment.  :yesnod:

Dumping raw fuel into the engine when shut down will certainly foul plugs....this might be why your plugs look bad.

Get a heat insulating base gasket under that holley carb to keep conductive heat under control.  :Twocents:
