Default Ready to give up...

[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/img] I have a 2000 400ex and my problem is everytime I Wheelie it fuel just pours out of the small hose under the bike. My brother has a 400ex as well and small amounts of fuel drips out of his when on two wheels which looks normal. I was just curious if anyone knew why there was such a big difference two. Any Ideas ?

Most likely you need to adjust the float in the carb. When you wheelie it floods. If the excess fuel didn't come out the overflow, it would go into the carb and you would stall out.

Thanx... The problem is there is no float adjustment on it. The manual says to replace the float. I would think the problem would still be there. The amount of fuel the comes out is crazy gotta do something.
