    Seakaye12,  No flow from pulse outlet on pump when fuel line bulb squeezed.  The plugs are very wet so I am guessing that not being able to run in 13 gal bucket at WOT is allowing an accumulation of oil/gas in chamber to leak out the exhaust after the motor is shut down.  I need to get a larger tank as I try to set up the carb properly before heading to the lake.

    I am learning a lot about the 70 year old motors and I am 6 years older than my CD-12.
