Title: Lower fuel tube
Post by: shoetbus on May 13, 2012, 08:32:18 AM
Been awhile but its time in MN to get things going to ride. I have a problem with the carbs I have fuel coming out the lower side/tube of both carbs, I have put them in the ultra-sonic with no luck. I think it might be float or needle and seat any thoughts.

As a former Minnesotan , I understand.  Really you need to pull the carbs and dip them . If your not comfortable with that , Send them to me . I rebuild Vision carbs.

Make shure the floats float, ethenol in the gas can damage plastic floats.

Could be some debris in the needle seat assembly. I'm guessing you have a fuel filter but they don't stop everything. It could also be the O-ring the seals the seat assembly into the carb body. The needle/seat can work perfectly but if the O-ring is shrunk or cracked fuel will run into the bowl with impunity.  :o

also check that the drain screws are tight & the o-rings on them are good as well.

Ok took the other set of carbs used the ultra-sonic set floats all is good with the fuel leak out the overflow. New problem now got them all synced up and I have a dead spot if I quick twist the throttle if I do a gradual no problems?
