ok here we go got the bike in pieces tank off plug out airfilter off plug color ok but wet" ie fuel" dry off put back in cap turn over eng near gave me a heart attack 8O fuel shot out all over the place and for quite a few turns to?checked air box big puddle in there to . any way dry it out dropped bowl on carb no water in there,put tank on turn on petrol try to start no go looked in air box fuel in there again so tunned fuel taps off kicked over couple of times and yes we ave life! turn fuel on and runs sweet ? :p
Now then am i correct in thinking its probley just the needle valve sticking or could some thing else be causing this influx of fuel/bearing in mind the start of this was the bike cutting out going down hill,throttle closed?only to cut out on demand at the bottom.
opinions gladly accepted as always yours humbly

It does sound like the float stuck, it can happen but is not too common. Bergs are notorious for getting oil in the air box after a spill. If it doesnt run into the float bowl it can plug the air jet. This is why alot of guys modify there crankcase breather system.
 
is there any link 4 this modification on site,or is it a simple mater fo removing the breather pipe off the frame?
 
Hey, whazzup? Hope to see you clean out your float bowl and float needle and jet. Likely, you had a piece of dirt or hose rubber stuck in it. It may have cleared, but it will eventually find it's way into one of your jets if you don't remove it. Watch out for fires! :)
