Dolmar 116si flooding
« on: April 20, 2023, 10:44:09 am »
 I have Dolmar 116si that floods just sitting there. Its like the tank pressurizes and pushes gas past the carb directley into the muffler. When I try to start it gas shoots out the muffler. Rebuilt the carb but it still floods.  I have at a shop works on chainsaws and he can't figure it out.  Anybody have any suggestions?

Seat in carb could be bad. Did they pressure test carb?

Heck try a known new carb bet that will tell ya. ;)  I had to do that on a saw a few times.
