[Ken Thompson III]

Thanks for all your help everyone, I've printed your info and will take it to him later so he can try out your ideas.

I told him our discussion forum was the place to get the answers.

  Subject: 140L spitting fuel


  A friend at my local field is flying a 140L in a pattern style plane.  He tells me that when the motor is running at about 1/4 throttle or below, it is spitting fuel from the carb.
  He pulled the motor and put it on a test stand where he tried to adjust both the pump and the low end needle to get rid of the problem.  I believe the carb was spitting fuel until the adjustments made the motor quit.

  Any ideas would be appreciated.
