On my airstriker carbs that are brand new, the hose at the very bottom is leaking fuel when the gas is on. It didnt do it before, but now it just pours. Does this mean the floats need adjusted?

not sure about air strykers , but on most carbs either that or trash in the needle& seat area (to the float) only takes A little piece to unseat it

Your float is stuck tap on the bowl with the handle of a screew driver and it should un stick

Cool... I will go give that a shot.

pull the bowl off adn look the float over, make sure the pin is in the holes and everythign is in check.

 

dont know the exact measurement to adjust the float im sure sudco has that on their site.

Yeah, those are the only two reasons that I can think of. Either adjustment is off (you didn't drop anything and bend it did ya), or the float valve is not seating right because of crap in it.............

Im going to take it apart soon and see whats up. Kinda odd because they were perfect, I took them off, put them back on and now they overflow. Nah, I didnt drop anything so im bettings its something simple. :thumbsup:
