Hi all, hope you can help. My `99 FE501E has a flooding problem.
It starts and runs ok in neutral, and at moderate throttle openings when taking it nice and easy but if I give it a good hand full it floods. I can rev the berries off it out of gear and all is well, it only happens under propper engine load.... :?
I can only think it`s the floats sticking but how do I stop it? If I turn the fuel tap off or give the carb a good tap it usually stops.
I have replaced the needle valve and seat and tried to lower the floats but it still does it.
The floats are the seperate type on sliders.
Thanks Kev.
