I know nothing about the emissions stuff. But it does sound as if the float is stuck. drain the fuel out of the carb (gas tank petcock closed in case petcock is damaged opens w/o vacume) and tap the carb bowl as it drains and this may fix it. Make sure no gas has leaked into the cylinder and then into the oil. Though I dont' think it can on the klr.> the clear line off of the side of the carburator. Thanks

I decalifornicated my A17 without a hitch. Only cap the red gas tank "port". Don't use vacuum hose caps because gas will eat right through and kaboom! Attach a fuel grade hose to the blue "port" and down (carefully so nothing binds) with the other hoses to bottom (this vents the system). Cap the hose going into the airbox so your pig doesn't run lean (it's above the battery). Your fuel system isn't vented so it's coming out the only place it can (the clear tube you mentioned)!

I'm having this same issue after doing the mod, i'm mean after a tragic accident resulting in my whole emmisions system falling off. the carb is getting way too much gas and it floods out as well as running out the vent line, like lots, like a stream. The carb now acts like it's flooded unless I turn off the petcock after the carb fills with fuel. I thought that maybe there was a vacum increase due to the removal of the emmissions can and that since vacum operates the petcock???????? I also thought about the float issue as I did the dynojet kit at the same time, but based on your post now I have no idea. The hose on the airbox is in the area where the main fuses are, big hose. not capping it would let more air into the box and cause a lean issue and shouldn't result it fuel overflow. Mine will only stay running if I close the petcock after the carb is full, runs good until it runs out of fuel in the carb. I haven't had time to troubleshoot it yet and haven't been riding. if I figure it out I'll post it to the group. If anyone else has any ideas please advise. Thanks oh great and knowledgible cult memebers(at least thats what my wife thinks) Scott D> the clear line off of the side of the carburator. Thanks
