spiderpig Posted September 12 Posted September 12 (edited) 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? Edited September 12 by spiderpig Pic for entertainment 1 Quote
Svsam Posted September 12 Posted September 12 I’d put money on it. tap the bowl at a strong point try to shock the needle to close. 1 Quote
DAZ Posted September 13 Posted September 13 (edited) 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 Edited September 13 by DAZ Addition 1 Quote
spiderpig Posted September 15 Author Posted September 15 (edited) Stripped the carbs down, blasted them with carb cleaner, checked the float heights, stuck it back together.... Sorted did the pilot settings while I was at it, they were all set differently Float bowls were actually extremely clean, weird considering I never drain them or the tank when it's parked up for months....
