Gas coming out carb vent tube on invader
« on: January 19, 2014, 12:14:35 PM »
While running my invader I have gas running out one of the vent tubes on that right side carb.  Would a stuck needle cause that?

yup. If it leaks while motor is off, also a needle and seat (or float setting) and possibly valve in the fuel pump (anti-siphon valve)

Pulled the carbs and found the needle stick up in the seat.  Got it cleaned out and works like a champ now.
