Why gas keeps flowing?

Asked by wwezell May 24, 2020 at 12:28 PM about the 1991 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

When the car is shut off with the batterie unhooked.
The gas still flows and leaks out the air intake tube.
Once it dose this has to sit for a bit because the
engine is like locked up. Then it will turn over and
run great.
