Carb Problem? (95 XP)

[drewmark19]

Fuel continues to trickle into the front carb after the motor has been shut off, and then the ski is hard to restart because it gets flooded. So far I have rebuilt the carbs and have replaced the needles and seats. Pop-off was set by a dealer. What else can I do. My sister has a 95 XP so I switched the carbs and her carbs do the same thing. The ski runs great once it is running provided you don't let it sit and idle for very long. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Right now I'm running it, but I have to run it out of gas before shutting it off. If I don't, I have to turn the fuel selector valve to off and crank it over with the throttle wide open to get it to start. Not the end of the world, but it would be nice to have it running right.

Re: Carb Problem? (95 XP)

something is amiss in your carb rebuild. they are so simple, yet they require a certain amount of tlc.you could take the complete carb to the dealer and have him go through it and double check. o-ring around seat leaking,control arm not adjusted properly,wrong spring,wrong needle and seat size for spring used.i believe 1.5 is correct. if you dont have a gauge you can only guess and go by trial and error.till you find where it is leaking and why. good luck it can be frusterating.
