    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Gas flooding blowby box

I own a GS750L. I had the seat off and the air filter removed from the rear end of the airbox (I'm a new owner, maybe it's just me, but is this not odd that the filter just "sits" dangling off the rear end of the airbox directly above my battery??) and doing some work on my bike. I turned the bike on, had the choke engaged, and revved the engine. I proceeded to notice gas gushing out of the rear end of my carburetors and splashing out of the rear of my blowby box, it was quite obvious as I had the air filter removed. Just a wild guess, but I'm thinking this is abnormal. I also heard popping noises, best I can explain is sort of like a backfire, but not nearly as loud, just some "air pockets". Ideas as to what is causing this??
 
When it backfires it will blow some fuel out the carb. It shouldn't flow steady
Large flow indicates a stuck float.
