Title: Gas in air filter?
Post by: shaky on October 09, 2003, 09:44:24 PM

Looked at my air filter the other day and noticed what seemed to be gas along the underside of the air filter. My bike was backed over recently, so I cleaned the filter and went for a ride. Again, gas in the filter. Any ideas. I'm running 125, 37.5, F1r, K&N(not pods), 4.5 turns out.

Thanks

shaky, Weclome to the board.

I'm not too sure about the gas in the air filter. It may be a little blow back through the carbs, vavle timing issues, float hight, etc... Some one else will have some better answers.

BUT, I gotta ask: BACKED OVER??? Please elborate.

Yea carb spit I call it... Flooding/high-stuck float may also cause it but It will be in the bottom of airbox before it ends up on the filter.
Cool.
