Anybody had a 34 dcge dumpfuel because it wanted a regulator? This is on a samurai, My secondary is pouring fuel in on its own spontaneously. Its even running rich at full throttle:( Anyone solve a similar problem on a different carb with a regulator?

My relatively new Weber 34-34 is dumping fuel from the secondary. so much that it maintains a puddle on top of the throttle plate when the secondary is closed. This carb is about 1.5 years old but is off-road-only and only has maybe 40 hours total use. Any suggestions as to what could be...

The seatbelt idea is nice. I think the best thing is to wire it in with the key switch and try to find a gravity switch that will kill it if i'm upside down.

Thats a good point although in that event I could just bypass it. The problem may be that I will have to have a bypass to get it to start if the float bowl isn't full. i may need to make this a little complicated to get it to work right and safe

Its a GM alternator of some kind. It was in there when I got it. Is the charge wire typically 12v, I could just poke around the harnase and see if I can find one that goes dead when its not running. The trick is to get it running at the moment. I can hard wire the pump for testing I guess...

My fuel pump is going out on my samurai and I have a low pressure electric fuel pump to put on. I can wire the pump through a solenoid to turn off when the key is off but ... Problem:confused:: I don't want the thing to keep pumping gas after I roll down a hill and the motor stops running...

my wiring is all tore up anyway so I am going to get out of the electricity thing as much as I can. All it will take is an electric choke wire. I can handle that. Comparing the new carb to the stock one. One barrel of the 35 is about as big as both on the stock carb. This ought to make...

I probably won't get it on until after christmas but I will report on how it goes. I hope we get a good now day after I get it on. It would be nice to be able to spin the 33's, it has always been so pathetioc with the malfunctioning stock carb.

top end performance. webercarbs.com I believe. I don't know why but they kick everyones trash on price. My 34/34 came yesterday and it seems to be a complete kit although I haven't gone though it very thoroughly yet. The 32/36 is only a few bucks more too, at this point I am wishing I had...

I did a little searching and couldn't find much on the subject, what have you heard is wrong with it? I have heard it will get worse gas mileage but I have a real hard time caring about that, If it would run good and got 15 MPG I would be thrilled. Thats what you get out of a 800cc polaris on...

It appears that the cheepest way to dump the original samurai carb is a 34 DGEC. Kit around $250. Anyone using one? Any complaints about the jetting or factory setup on the kits? Also, how does it take steep climbs relative to a stock carb. Thanks

Thinking about doing providence canyon up to the logan peak on saturday morning. Should be a much nicer wether day than we have had in a while:). Anyone interested?

All right, so do I need to replace the wire that goes all the way to the fuze box or ECU and back or can I just run a big fat wire from the alternator up to the positiv for the battery?

Good, I'm glad to hear that's normal. I will put a big fuse in and Ill have to figure out what I can do to eliminate this problem.

I didn't come up with my diagnosis until after I put the kid to bed last night and it doesn't have a muffler so I haven't checked the volted for sure yet. Its a dead give away.
