Default Fuel coming out tube..?

Hello, I'm new to the forum. Great info here. I was riding today and noticed that some fuel was coming out the tube on the bottom of my carb bowl. It is rough terrain around here. I did check my float level a few months ago and it was within specs. Anybody else have this happen alot?

When I had a carb on my 2004 it would do that every so often. It even did it when it was in the trailer if I left the gas on. Got to love EFI

The stock carb does that and is known for being finnicky about dirt in the float bowl that allows the fuel to flow. If it is just a little bit, that is normal. Much more or if it does it even when sitting still, time to break open the carb. Save yourself a little headache and break the screws loose with vise grips[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] You will be glad you did. The stock screws strip EASILY. Good luck.
