Carb issues

[Druro]

I've just put a dynojet stage 3 kit into my 83 GS1100E (to go with Pods and Yosh exhaust) and now it's leaking out of the #1 carb. It drips out the filter. Would the floats need to be adjusted for this? Carbs were clean and synced prior to the change.

The other thing I've heard is that i need to plug the vent tubes for this. Is that correct?

Any help would be great.

You are supposed to remove the tubes from the vent nipples but leave them open.

Gas spilling out means a float is stuck down. This sometimes happens when taking off the carbs and laying them upside down while working on them. Try taking a large screwdriver and with the plastic handle end, rap on the float bowl - the idea is to jar the float loose and get it floating properly.

Good luck.

Either that or the #1 spark plug isn't firing.

Well, i'm having some issues with #4 not firing, but #1 is definitely working.

The reason I ask is because I had fuel leaking out of my #3 pod a couple of weeks ago and I had to redo the connection on the spark plug boot.

well, taping the carb doesn't do squat.... It's odd cause it did this once earlier, and then didnt. The second time was when there was not alot of gas in the tank. Seems like that overpowers the carb or some such.

Looks like they have to come off for examination.
