3/14/2024 0 Comments Overflow season 2 leakSo the suggestion was to take a q-tip and put it in a the chuck of a drill or electric screw driver. I came across a post on a snowmobile forum that solved my issue. So as I mentioned I had the stock carb cleaned and rebuilt by Don and Plowmans and still was having this issue with gas leaking past the needle and filling the crankcase. I was able to fix my problem and I hope my solution might just help some folks who run in to this. Hey guys, I just realized I never followed up on this post. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated and hopefully help me retain my sanity. None the less I replaced that line.Īt this point what in the hell could be causing this? Obviously the first culprit would be needle and float but to have this happen on 2 carbs (the stock one just being sonically cleaned, rebuilt, and checked by Plowmans) I have to think it’s something else. When it first started I checked the pulsar line to make sure gas wasn’t getting in to the crankcase that way and it was dry. Even left the cap off and it still overfills. In addition to the things I’ve done above I changed out the fuel pump and I also happened to have one of the Amazon knockoff “Mokini” carbs that I put on to see if it overfilled and I’ll be damned, it did the same thing, gas just pouring out of it. Off came the carb again, more cleaning, adjusted the plastic tab on the float as much as I could, reassembled and this time I just hung the carb on the studs to see if I could watch it overflow and sure enough after a few minutes I was watching gas fill it up and drip out both ends. Put it all back together, came back next week to the same results. I pulled the carb off, pulled it apart, cleaned it and all the jets and the needle and seat thoroughly. Cart ran fine but when I came back to my campground the next week I found my crankcase full of gas again. I sent my carb to Don at Plowmans to clean and rebuild, got it back and put it back on. It started last season, over the winter my G16s crankcase filled with gas and of course I figured it was due to a bad needle and seat. Folks, I’m about to pull my little remaining hair out over this issue and I’m hoping for some advice.
