too much gas

[foxracingkid22]

there is to much gas filling up in the carb bowl. is this cause i bent the float valve down too much

 

[scotj77]

possibly could be float adjustment. or trash in the needle and seat, also the needle and seat could be worn out. there are how to's in the diy section for all those fixes

ok well it didn't do this til i started messing with the float adjustment cause at first it wasn't getting any. so now its too much. time for more tinkering

Sometimes tangs get to look like this and cause problems.

you don't just "play with the tang" it must be adjusted then measured for proper operation,

stock carb is 20-21.5 mm, measured like this.......

ok well i broke the overflow tube cause i thought it was bent over or something. i thought it might be causing problems, the bowl was hard to put back on. well i have a 30 mm oko flat side carb and it is a lil different from the one in the pic. does it matter or do all the floats measure out to that? and my tang does not look like that

 

[Awk08]

all carbs have a different float measurement
google "30mm oko float setting"

Alright will look it up

i couldn't help myself................

30 oko float level is 19-20MM. Measure from base of carb body to top of float (middle of the float tallest part).

btw, google led me back to here, so the search button at the top of each page would have worked too...........
