Hi all...my friend and I are both having the same problem with fuel boiling or percolating in the carbs after shut down. It drips out of the carbs and onto the intake manifold. It's not much but it's dangerous and smells terrible. We both have Weber 44's and we are using the thick spacers between the heads and intakes. I have ordered the thick spacers for under the carbs also. Is there anything else to consider with this problem?
It wasn't even hot today and oil temps only about 200 degrees!! Any and all suggestions appreciated!! Mike |

Yes, I'm using the spacers between the heads and the intake. Just ordered the ones between the intake and carbs.
Thanks |
