    accelerator pump problem!!!

    Hi guys, I have a small dribble of fuel coming out of the accelerator pump hole on the side of the carb?? I have rebuilt it and fitted it to the car and turned key on and noticed it?? I thought this was ment to have no fuel coming out of it as the pipe plumbs into the carb top??? any thoughts anyone???
