Gas in my air box!? 140-160

posted by  someone claiming to be Jack P. on  Tue Oct 12 14:46 CST 2004 [RELATED]

Hi,
I started my '69 164 up yesterday after it's been sitting in the garage for awhile and after about ten minutes I noticed gas dripping from the air box.
What could cause that to happen?
Thanks.

    A stuck or non-closing float valve in one of your carbs. Float chambers
    vent into the air cleaner.
