NewToBanshees Posted November 18, 2012 Report Share Posted November 18, 2012 Went out on a trip to the desert, everything ran fine, probably put 5 hrs on it. It stands up the whole way back, I clean the shit out of it. Then I go to start it and as soon as i turn on the gas it starts dumping gas out of both right overflow hoses. I know that my floats are probably stuck, but dont know what to do about it. Should I be trying to kick it when its pouring gas? (i would think this would foul my plug) or taking the bottom of the carbs off and cleaning the floats with carb cleaner or what? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
So Cal Suspension Posted November 18, 2012 Report Share Posted November 18, 2012 Tap on the float bowl with a screwdriver handle... Usually unsticks floats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClayAiken Posted November 18, 2012 Report Share Posted November 18, 2012 If it isnt float its needle and seat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKheathen Posted November 18, 2012 Report Share Posted November 18, 2012 if the screw-driver trick doesn't get it, back off the drain screw more than 2 turns and let the debris flow out, may have to open the fuel to flush it. tighten the drain screw and try again. when you get the chance, pull that one bowl off and check that the floats are free, and pin not walked out. also, that the bowl is clean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
