[Roadsters] rear carb issue

[Keith0alan at aol.com]

This is normally a float valve issue. Either it is worn out of has a bit of 
 dirt in it.

In the  process of fixing a small fuel leak (new gasket) on the rear float 
on my 1600,  I have discovered another issue with this carb: The over flow, 
which is piped  into the air cleaner, seems to be flowing fuel into the air 
cleaner  holder--not a lot but enough to be worrying. I have been smelling 
fuel off and  on for a few weeks or so, so I have to think this is a new 
issue. 

How  do I get this to stop? 

The float does not have gas in it. And the  spring valve in the float seems 
to be working.

I have new carbs coming,  but until then, and I do not know how long this 
will be, I would like to fix  this  issue.

Thanks
Tim
