[TR] Float bowls overflowing
Roger,
Cracked floats would do it! The floats
get saturated with fuel and don't
"float" anymore! I would suspect your
fuel pump pressure but you said it
ran fine with that fuel pump until now.
I assume you're using a fuel filter
so we can rule out nasty bits of dirt
clogging the valves....if the float
level is set to spec and the pump hasn't
suddenly decided to put out 8 or
10psi, I'm guessing that there's a crack in
one of your floats.

there anything besides excess
fuel pressure that would cause the bowls to
overflow?
