86 Spree Fuel Issues
Posted: Tue Sep 19, 2023 10:57 pm
I recently bought a 86 Spree for the wife, went through the regular cleaning of the carb, fuel tank, etc and the thing ran great until it started leaking gas out of the carb overflow. Rebuilt the original carb (replaced float and needle) and still the same so went to the petcock and replaced that and the problem was still there.
For the past month I have cleaned and rebuilt the carb 3 times,cleaned the fuel tank, replaced 2 petcocks and fuel lines, installed a new aftermarket carb and made an intake adapter to run a phbg 17.5 just to test to see if it was a carburetor issue and it still leaks when its running and when stopped with all these changes.
Am I missing something that could be causing this issue because I am running out of ideas and patience with this thing
Thank you in advance!
