[QUOTE="injunjoe, post: 297111, member: 10586"] I am also wondering if you got this problem fixed. I also wanted to ask if you recently replaced your fuel tank. The new tanks are made to hold 5 lbs of pressure before venting unlike the older style tanks. If a fuel demand valve is not used the pressure will build up and flood the carb. My solution to this problem was to just replace the new fuel tank cap with an older style vented cap as I did not want to buy the $29.00 fuel demand valve. I feel the valve is just something else to go wrong and cause headaches. [/QUOTE]
