 Mikuni fuel over flow hose
While running yesterday I noticed that fuel was pouring out of that little black hose on my Mikuni. I was told that when i had it in a bind that a little would come out. I never really paid attention to it till yesterday. It sure seems like a lot, it was a steady stream.

 Re: Mikuni fuel over flow hose
Mine does that when I'm running down the road. But, I think its because I close the vent on my gas tank when driving and the pressure pushes fuel to my carb and it drains out the overflow hose.

 Re: Mikuni fuel over flow hose
Your float tab needs to be bent a lil bit to stop the flow into the bowl sooner.
