Re: 94 50hp carb help

Idle mixture screws misadjusted, float level incorrectly set, float incorrectly installed, needle and seat incorrectly installed or not seating. Cleaning a carb should always be followed by installation of a new kit.

I put in new float needle and seat but I still have air flow. 8. take a clean piece of hose, connect to the fuel inlet, with the carb in operating position, blow into the hose, it should blow air out of the carb. now turn the carb upside
down, blow into hose, there should be no air allow thru. this means the float needle is seating, and stopping the flow, as it should.

you need to adjust your float. the needle is not closing, flooding the motor. when up side down make the gap between carb body, and float bottom, just a little bit wider than the hinge side. reassemble and try the blow test.
