Took the cap off of the tank and gas still wouldn't flow down. Will
keep an eye on it as fuel in the lower lines thins out. Sometimes when
I ride it feels like the motor is starving for fuel, wonder if the fuel
is flowing strong enough? Don't know what else to check.

 Ventured out to the garage last eve to replace the tranny gasket for the

2nd time, hope it works. During disassembly of the battery/tray, I
noticed my petcocks were still on, but there was no fuel in the upper
hoses, just the lower portion. Had this problem several months ago and
rerouted the fuel lines. I also cleaned the vent holes on the carbs at
that time and all was well. Since then, Andy has had the carbs
disassembled and cleaned, and the lines look fine. Why is it fuel won't

flow?
