Fuel problem - HELP-
I have a Honda Foreman 1987 350D. When I ride the bike it is fine, but when I shut it off for an extended amount of time and try to restart it floods itself out. This happens close to 40% of the time. If I first drain float bowl, it starts every time. Just replaced the fuel filter, float, needle valve and removed and cleaned out all carb ports and put new gaskets and O rings in it. I have a Honda Foreman 1987 350D.

Anybody else experience anything similar and any hints on what to do??? bad fuel pump, plugged vent lines, bad gas cap, bad shutoff valve .............. Help!

yooper,
this is a guess..but, if you replaced the float, & needle, did you shim the floats to spec? otherwose there could be too much fuel in the bowls and cause some problems, also, when it sits, after it is hot, if a roolover valve, or tank vent is clogged it could be building up pressure and seeping gas into the carb bowls..
