Default Racing "BUBBA" bike last night.

Last night I was racing my alcohol BUBBA bike and I noticed after running wide open for 30 to 45 seconds then letting off the throttle it would puke fuel out the bottom of the bike. ( I assume a overflow tube ). Is this normal with such a great amount of alcohol at wide open then shutting all the way down
? It did not do it when we were just riding around. Only after running it real hard 90mph+

I guess I might be most qualified to answer this one[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]When running wide open the fuel pump is pumping max flow. When you shut it down quickly it will force fuel past the needle and seat and puke out the overflow tube. It happened to me all the time and that's why I put the long tubes all the way out the bottom. If it gets to puking real bad then you probably need to carefully remove the bowl and do some cleaning inside there. You really like stretching that thing out,dont you?[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
