 From Kastner's Triumph preparation handbook
"I had complained to Stromberg about fuel flooding on hard cornering and 
fuel starvation problems in others.  Their advice was that I should try 
different locations with the float chamber vent. Their recommendation 
was to 'try the vents forward and rear diagonally, if this didn't help 
to try two forward then try two rearward.' Moving the float chamber vent 
did fix the problem"
