I have PMO's on a SC based 3.2 ltr. in my 914. After the car sits for a time the float bowls are empty. Were the heck is the fuel going? Any ideas?

Evaporation
Carbs are open systems Unlike modern induction which is a sealed system And the reason they no longer meet emissions standards There was also nice a Honda advertisement where two vehicles were separately placed in a sealed room to test hydrocarbons The mid 80’s Honda was fuel injected and with the motor running The mid 80’s American car was parked and not with the motor running The Honda running produced less emissions than the carb’d car which was not running |
