I've got a walbro 771 and when I have it open full throttle fuel is blowing back out of the carb.
Do I have the end point on my radio set to high or is there another problem?

That carb is a 12.7 mm venturi. You may have it too rich try to lean it and see if it doses it again.

tuning your intake length will stop the blow back, i wont go into the math here but its approximately 3 7/8" from the piston face to the end of the spit tube. basically you are overcoming the mass of the blow back with the inertia of the air entering the intake tract. if you run a can muffler then a Hemholz resonator will give you a 15% boost which is about what a tuned pipe gives an engine. ive done extensive testing with these devices and they come on like a shot of NOS. plus they will prevent you from hydro'ing the engine in a roll over.

Thanks Mart & Old and Slow good info
I have a velocity stack I ordered seperate from the motor, but I didn't put it on because the fuel tank is in the way. I think i'll check into going with a gas bag I can locate elsewhere.
