Howdy! That is a very common problem on the Edlebroch/Carter setup. It takes about 15 minutes and 5 cents worth f fuel line to fix. Just remove the top plate from the carb, insert some fuel line vertically into the long passage that connects the two float chambers, then cut off the fuel line flush with the top of the main body casting. It does not have to be 100% fuel proof, just has to stop the rush of fuel from running lefty-righty on off camber trails. Best 5 cents I ever spent. John
