Re: flooding 6hp

I pulled apart the carb but can’t see any issues (I’ll replace the needle just to see if that corrects things). The gurgling noise is still present, seems to be emanating from the manifold. Both the boss gasket and needle seat gaskets are OK. I’ll replace them both just to be safe. tHere is a video:

Fleetwin I pulled the fuel pump and the noise is still coming from the motor with the pump removed; so I believe that should rule out a bad pump diaphragm.

I pulled over the motor with a rope about 4 times to try and expel any pooling of fuel in the crank that might have been left over, and didn’t see any change in the amount of ‘gurgling’ I could hear.

Any ideas?
