Message:		Lately, we have had 3 carburetors overflow with gas out of the accelerator pump plunger hole. These carbs have run great up until about a month or two ago. After the accelerator pump is pulled up, it is slow going back down and it overflows which causes the engine to run really rough and eventually die. The carbs have all been rebuilt 1-2 times al least and they still have the same problem. Does anyone know what is causing this problem? We are thinking it is something in the new gas??? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks! Power Man (Rob)
