Default RE: Moki 180 Fuel problems

Mike:
You did not do anything wrong, thanks. Today, I put in a brand new tank, with all new tubing, and endeded up with the same problem. In fact, I placed the new tank, above the origional, I did notice when I tipped the plane on the spinner, fuel came gushing out the carb. I pulled the carb, the oring is not split, reinstalled it, same thing. Fuel coming out the carb with the throttle closed?
May I remind you this is a brand new engine.Something is wrong with the carburator, I have fought this for a week now, pulled the engine and I am sending it back to BJ's engine's , to have him look at what is happening. Iam tiredof messing with this engine right nowafter a week of frustration. There is a leak in the carburator somewhere, and I can't trace it down. Bill Jenson told me I don't need a perry pump or a cline, the engines do not require it, as they should. You don't have to plug up one muffler pipe for more pressure , according to Slimline and you don't need any pump or regulator..
