Also putting air pressure to it does nothing and makes the pump continuously build which made me originally think it was a blockage. Quote Link to comment
TakemuraShuu Posted December 15, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2020 Just in case anyone is having the same issue, it's been solved. Problem was clogged feed tube on the tank. Had a radiator shop clean it out and now it feeds fuek great. New problem tho, keeps flooding the carb haha Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted December 15, 2020 Report Share Posted December 15, 2020 Webers are very sensitive to too much fuel pressure. 2.5 to 3 PSI is about it. Is this the electric pump? what's the pressure rating?? Try the stock pump, they are just over 3. You may need to clean the fuel inlet needle. There may be dirt preventing it closing.

It's on the stock pump. Fuel inlet? From the tank or carb? Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted December 16, 2020 Report Share Posted December 16, 2020 The carb has a float that rises and shuts off fuel entering the carb. Quote Link to comment

Do Weber 38's have that? I'm assuming I'm have take the top part of the carb off? It's a new carb I'm unsure why it's even having this issue 😭 Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted December 16, 2020 Report Share Posted December 16, 2020 Not a Weber carburetor expert, but probably. Replace the fuel filter first unless new. If you can't find anything you may have to put a fuel pressure regulator in line. Quote Link to comment

So I put a fuel pressure regulator with the lowest possible setting, in addition to the Jeep c7 fuel filter that sends a return back to the tank, and IT'S flooding it, on stock pump. I'm starting to think it's just the carb, even tho it's brand new. Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted December 17, 2020 Report Share Posted December 17, 2020 Take the top off. Stuck or sunken float. Float set to incorrect height. Inlet needle valve jammed with debris. Quote Link to comment
