Tomm Posted February 8, 2009 Report Share Posted February 8, 2009 So I just finished rebuilding my motor and added lots of goodies.... 1 of which is brand new 35mm Keihin Carbs. I was very happy when is started the Shee started on the 3 kick :biggrin: but as i was doing its first heat cycle I noticed that when i let off the throttle it would spit gas outta 1 of the vent tubes. (didnt think to much of it at the moment until I came back to the bike 10 mins later and there was a puddle of gas under the bike) Any ideas of why this is happenin?........

shee4speed Posted February 8, 2009 Report Share Posted February 8, 2009 float adjustment is possibly out of whack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUDEDAWG Posted February 8, 2009 Report Share Posted February 8, 2009 You probably had a little bit of dirt or dust in the fuel line and it probably worked itself into the needle valve. I would just take the carb off and clean the needle and seat really well, should be an easy fix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
