I built my 1.7 to a 2.0 with 2 Weber 44s. When I get back from a good cruise and park it in garage, after bout 7 mins later I here a gurgling from the carbs. Fuel dripping on butterfly's. Stinks up my 3 car garage. Me and my mechanic are doing different things. The last thing I tried was pulling a nipple I put on the expansion tank where the charcoal canister line went to the expansion tank. Did another 50 mile cruise, and parked it in the garage and after 7 mins nothing, then a little drip. It was about 3/4 better taking the nipple off. Soooooooooo, what is going on, I'm confused and help would be thankful.

I've also heard of putting on/off switch for fuel pump. Switching to off before turning power off. In other words turn pump off and wait tell fuel runs out, then power down the 914.

QUOTE(cpavlenko @ Oct 3 2019, 06:09 PM)  I've also heard of putting on/off switch for fuel pump. Switching to off before turning power off. In other words turn pump off and wait tell fuel runs out, then power down the 914. I did this for a similar problem plus to use as a theft deterrent. I have not parked it in the garage since the mod but from what I can tell it helps reduce the fuel smell from the carbs. The other benefit is I can mess with my Bluetooth distributor programming without the fuel pump running while the ignition is on |
