===== When the bowl atmospheric pressure can't equalize, it's gonna stop the engine. Whether by low pressure (gas no go out of bowl) or high pressure (gas no go to bowl) the result is the same (gas no go to engine). Thanks to everyone for figuring this one out. Now I know what to (pre-emptively) fix. eric
