Good Afternoon,
Long time reader, four-time poster. After reading through all of the other posts about carburetor overflow problems and doing all that I could to repair what I thought was the issue, here I am posting for you help.
Last week my #1 carburetor began purging fuel out the overflow. I pulled out the float, checked it, looked at the needle seemed fine, but noticed that the float lever was bent at the bump stop contact point. Using the other float levers as a guide, I reshaped the lever to match the others, thinking that this would solve the problem (silly me).
I am still gushing fuel out of the overflow; does anyone have any other avenues for me to try? Any help would be greatly appreciated, especially since my wife hates it when I keep coming home stinking of fuel!
