    installed new/used carbs!!!

    with the air filters off i noticed when i would rev it hard it looked like a mist of gas would spray out in intake side of carbs, i dont have any backfiring it runs real smooth, i do think my float levels are high would that cause the mist or is this normal?

    Isn't that exactly what a carburetor is supposed to do, mix gasoline with air?

      when i say intake side of carb i really ment airbox side of carb, the mist of air/fuel is spraying a few inches out the carbs THE WRONG DIRECTION correct me if`n im wrong but shouldent all the air/fuel mix go in the motor and not the filter???

        It's just the velocity of the mixture coming to a sudden stop as the intake valves close. The mixture can't just come to a dead stop so it reverses itself a bit to equalize pressure.
