I think there is a hole in my float or something because I checked the float level and it was good, but the carb is still flooding all the way up into the 90 degree rubber part of my air filter and 'gargling' in there!!
Meanwhile not a single drop of fuel out of the drainage line at the base of the bowl! I had the carb apart and blew in the the drainage piece to make sure it wasn't clogged up and it wasn't. How can air get through but fuel won't?
I don't understand what's going on? The only guess I have is that the overflow piece that is inside the bowl which sticks up is too high, and the fuel is going up the pilot or main jet and then overflowing into the air filter and engine. Although some fuel would be bound to end up in the drainage?
I need some serious ideas on this one guys ;
Come to think of it, I never had any fuel come out of the drainage line when I had a CNS before on another bike. The only time I ever saw fuel come out of that line was when I had the tube attached from it around to the air vent on the top of the carb which created a vacuum effect. It was never strong enough to pull the fuel all the way through the tubing to the top and in, but the fuel would come out into the tubing and then go back... like it was being used "as needed" . But that other CNS never flooded up like this.
