We kept having over flow problems with the after market carbs off Amazon. This was a simple fix so we didn’t have to spend $500 on a oem carb!

I've had the same problem. This fixed it. Hooked the gas line on the smaller side of the fuel filter. Running no problems. Easy $20 fix. Many thanks. Saved me $500 plus for a replacement.

This fix worked! Carb kept overflowing through the vents, but now it works better than ever!! Thanks for sharing! On ours the hoses on machine were 1/4", the filter inlet & outlets were 5/16", had to adapt with brass adapters from Lowes. Oh, and make sure the return outlet on the filter is above the outlet to the carb.

Great vid! After installing 2 different carbs and having the same overflow issue I started thinking the new fuel pump might be the bigger issue. Parts ordered, can't wait to try this fix.

I think you answered my question on Amazon about fuel pump psi for the replacement carb lol. If it wasn’t you someone answered my question and told me the part number for the WIX filter and sent me to KZfaq 🤣 I’m thrilled to solve this issues!!!

yes and another fix is to use a carb with needed flow off any make or aftermarket .easy just measure the size of the bore of carb in MM 28mm or 34mm what ever it is i do that hot roding fer years but nice to fix one that bolts on cables easy like OEM clone units God bless

Ranger 500 2002 here with fuel dripping from float overflow, air filter smelt rich, Chinese carb, tried to adjust the carb so many times…..and then…. This mod went onto mine earlier today exactly the same. Dripping has stopped. Stinky air filter stopped. Power has been restored. Good job. 👍

What is the part number for the grommet and the 90
@tiger14944 ай бұрын
I tried this and it worked at first but then the engine started spitting at low speeds when decelerating. Any ideas of the cause and solution? One note…the old barb fitting that vented the fuel tank threaded in and we were able to find a brass barb at the hardware store that worked…we didn’t need the grommet. Thanks!

I have a 2005 Polaris ranger and have put 2 aftermarket carbs on it and it continues to pour out from underneath the carb! Does not want to even start unless it sits overnight because I am assuming it’s flooding the carb. Do you think this is the same issue and would fix the problem? Thanks
@kevinkn52 жыл бұрын
Did you get it fixed? I have same problem. Doesn't pour out of bottom but drips. Runs for a while then when hot just dies

Put on a brand new carburetor and did this exact mod and it’s still flooding from the top overflow hose after I rev it a few times while idling. When I come in to a stop the Idle starts to get lower then it stalls. The fuel is drowning it out. I don’t know what to do now.

@revemupchannel41785 ай бұрын
If this isn’t helping, either the fuel pump is over coming the return in volume or the float in the carb is stuck.
@guerom13673 жыл бұрын
What would happen if i connected the overflow back to the carb?. It has 2 unused nipples. 1 on the side and 1 on the carb cap. Or what if i connected the overflow line back to the gas tank?

@danl61915 ай бұрын
@@richardmattson2445 Took it for a test drive, works great! To deal with mixed size hoses I went to Lowes & got brass adapters from 1/4" to 3/8". They didn't have 5/16". I didn't have the patience to find the 1/4" - 5/16". So we went from 1/4" on machine from pump - adaptor - 5/16" hose - filter - 5/16" hose - adaptor - 1/4" hose leading to the carb. I could send a picture if needed. One last thing, make sure the filter's return outlet is above the outlet to the carb.
