[TR] Float bowls overflowing

[Chip19474 at aol.com]

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.

Assuming  I haven't botched installing the needle valves and floats, is 
there anything  besides excess fuel pressure that would cause the bowls to  
overflow?
