    Well I just got my bike together cleaned the carbs for the fifth time and just put it back together. I took it for a nice long test drive and she was running good then it started to bog down like I was running on 2 cylinders. No diffrence with switching the petcock so I stopped and happen to look down and she is dumping gas I took the seat off and it's coming out of the vent tube on the left side of the carbs I brought some tools with me pulled the carbs off on the side of the rd the floats on that side seem to be moving fine. Could it b there not adjusted right sorry I didn't have time to search my fone is almost dead and I still can't get someone to pick me up any ideas wouild really help. Thanks

        That could be part of the problem as to why it's not running properly, but it would definitely be the floats as to why gas is pouring out.

            If that plug fell out then it's time to replace all four. They shrink and get loose as they age.

                When I put my carbs together the floats helped hold the plugs in place.

                Did you get it fixed? How did you get home?
