Went to start up by 84 B2 this morning and it ran fine for about 30 seconds. At that point it started to idle rough and about a minute later stalled. It will run normally if you hold your foot down on the gas pedal just a little bit. I took of my air cleaner and noted there was some fuel spray up into my air cleaner and on top of the carb itself. There is a small amount of fuel dripping from the area near the idle advance. Anybody else ever have this problem?

pull the top of the carb off and see if the float bowl is full of fuel the wet float level needs to be I believe 7/16 from the top of the float bowl to the center of the fuel in the bowl you may need a rebuild kit let us know what you find out.

While you have the top off the carb, remove the float and shake it, if it has fuel inside it it's time for a new one.
