Re: Engine flooding with gas - thoughts?

2nd the thought that crap kept the needle(s) from seating or that stuff left after the gas in the carb evaporated during the storage period caused the float to stick. Small multi-legged critters also like small areas with limited access.

Might put a filter between the frame and the intake on the fuel pump. Possible there is crap in the tank from sitting 2+ years. Easy to add and easy to remove if you later decide everything is OK and it is no longer needed. I run one there all the time with no issues.
