I have an older 120 model ys that just started this problem. I flew today one flight and upon landing I noticed the idle didnt seem right. I shut it off and when I went to fuel it fuel was dripping out the cowl. I took off the cowl and fuel is dripping our the carb barrel and when I run my fuel can pump backwards the fuel that is being drawn out is full of air. I checked the check valve and it is holding good and my fuel filter is clean. I dont recall this ever happening before. Any suggestions?
thanks
Jeff

The fuel regulator is garbaged up or the plunger is worn out.

Thanks a bunch. I took it apart and didnt really see anything but after cleaning it up and reinstalling everything it sealed the carb leak and there was no longer any bubbles in the line.
