    Found the problem:) the o rings on a couple of float valve seats were past their best and fuel was bypassing the float valve and a strange design where the carb bowl meets the carb body with a great big hole and plug setup was letting fuel go straight into the engine.New float valves and seats and a bit of gasket goo and problem solved

    Not a one hit wonder drewpy just busy! Besides some people like to cut to the chase. Like I will when I post the solution to this problem once I've fixed it.

    Just picked up 1990 xj600 cleaned carbs and fuel tank out but have noticed now it is flooding the engine i.e hydraulic lock when you turn it over when it is left to stand for a couple of days. Nothing comes out of the carb overflow it all just goes into the engine I've got new float valves on the way does any one know the float heights and has anybody else had this issue cheers
