*Spoiler Alert* I’m not actually giving up on this rude boi, just relocating it

I would pull those carbs and give them a good cleaning.

Float is prob stuck and dirty carbs.

Ended up being carb needed rebuilt runs esculent now

I guess I’m gonna do a thorough carb job been messing with this issue for a month now same problem

With gas that old having been run through the carbs, my bet is a piece of trash was holding the needle off the needle seat just enough so that the valve didnt close causing the flooding issue. Those carbs needed to be cleaned bad.

Give it to me, I’ll have it up and kicking in no time…….patience my son patience.

Lol, if we still had it I might take you up on that. The owner traded it for a 650. We were going to have to start fiddling with the jetting on it and he didn’t want to fool with it anymore

Ok I watched the second video. I am exactly where you’re at. Did you ever happen to find out the fix Sherwood appreciate the info your vids were great.

Ended up being jetted too rich, the owner didn’t want to fool with it anymore so he traded it

Fuel pump pushing fuel past the float needle?

I can't take any more of this " tinkering". The floats are definitely sticking or float level messed up. Keep cranking it while playing with the throttle and you will be replacing a starter clutch

You’re absolutely right, the floats were sticking. I very likely did do some damage to the starting system with all the cranking, but the bike is long gone now 👌🏻

What did you use to set your float level?

The way I check float level is with clear vinyl tubing on the drain, but that wasn’t the issue here

Needs carbs gone through

your gaz is too old
