Getting ready for first engine start and ran into a glitch. I put 5 gallons in each tank, then drained each tank to clean them out. Re-fueled then disconnected the fuel line from the carb and ran the boost pump, switched tanks, and ran the pump again to make sure the lines were cleaned out. Fuel flow on the boost pump showed 6.6 gal/hour. I connected the fuel line to the carb and turned on the boost pump to see if there were any fuel fitting leaks with the system pressurized. The system showed 5.6 psi but the pump wouldn't shut off although pressure dropped to 3.2 psi. Turned the pump off and had gas leaking out of the drain in the filter box
The carb was overhauled in Sep 2009. Before I start tearing into a carb, any suggestions?
Thanks,
