Hi, hopefully someone can help.
The manual states to set the carb floats at 14.7 mm, I can only get to 12mm, this seemed to be ok but after i took it for a run petrol overflowed from the carbs, if I set it up on a bench it does not overflow, when refitted it seems ok but if I turn the ignition on several times ( without starting the engine) it starts to overflow again but then stops. I blew down the air vacuum pipe and that really started over flowing the carbs. Also the two breather pipes off the carbs are they supposed to be connected somewhere, mine do not.
