B6 spewing fuel


Recommended Posts

Well the run around finally let me down. 

Went onto reserve, kept sputtering, filled up, wouldn't rev cleanly under load.

Pulled up, spewing fuel out the overflow, only when running. 

Pulled the fuel line, taps not leaking. 

Stuck float i presume?

Next time tanks virtually empty take it off and give it a swill out,  1/2 an hour , bet there will be a good bit of muck in the bottom , I'd do the float bowls to if you've got the time .... Shit happens :(

Stripped the carbs down, blasted them with carb cleaner, checked the float heights, stuck it back together.... Sorted :banana: did the pilot settings while I was at it, they were all set differently o.O

 

Float bowls were actually extremely clean, weird considering I never drain them or the tank when it's parked up for months....
