Default Wheelie Problem

Yea i have a 2002 400ex. when i wheelie it for awhile i notice that when im doing a wheelie gas will start to leak out of my overflow tube on the bottom of my quad. I was wondering is there any way to block this off without hurting my engine? I wheelie alot and i dont want my gas to be flowing out and be wasted.


thanks

no, the carb is at too extreme of angle, don't block the tube either, as it will flood the carb, and shut down the motor anyway

yea is going to happen and if it doesnt then you have a problem like a clogged overflow tube or carb bowl. it does the same thing if you drain the carb. if it happens when the four wheeler is on 4 wheels then you have a stuck float which is an easy fix. but yea so if you dont wanna "waste" your gas than dont do wheelies.....
