[QUOTE="Bradp, post: 166502, member: 1691"] So if anyone looked before I was having stator problems. Two days ago I got my new replacement stator sent to me. Took about five minutes and I had it put on fresh gas put in it, 2 kicks and it fired up.:thumb::ride: Now heres the problem.I shut it off. I had a slight leak at the fuel petcock, ok no big deal threw a rag under it tightened up the screws and it stopped. When I was doing that I noticed it was still leaking fuel sept it was coming from the bottom vent tube on the side of the carb bowl and was just as fast as the petcock could dump it into the carb (steady stream) I pulled the bike out of the garage started it up again to give it a quick pass up the alley by my house and as it was sitting there at an idle the steady stream was still going. I got on the throttle a little bit the stream would stop but as soon as I left off the throttle and let it go back to an idle the stream came right back?:noidea: Could it be a float stuck? The carb was just rebuilt right before the stator went out on it and it wasn't doing that. It maybe something simple, I just don't want tear shit apart if theres no need for it. Any knowledge and help would greatly be appreciated. Thanks [/QUOTE]
