06bluebanshee Posted March 24, 2012 Report Share Posted March 24, 2012 Gas is dripping alot out of the overflow on the right carb? It does it when idleing and when motor is turned off? What is the deal with all that? Thanks guys! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mhoksch Posted March 24, 2012 Report Share Posted March 24, 2012 Sounds like your float is sticking. I'd try taking the bowl off and cleaning it out, make sure the float is moving freely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
