I was chauffeured to last years BBQ by Don Jordan. His 47 Plymouth ran very nicely yet as the drive up and back progressed, the engine would suddenly loose power down to a near idle, but then would recover, etc., etc.,. Later he discovered that the top of his carb was damp, so he tightened all the screws and bolts and drove home without incident. 

 

Yesterday i I was showing my engine to an interested person and noted my carb was damp on top. I got wrenches and discovered every screw and  nut to be just short of snug. Is this common?
