carb keeps flooding out

On your McCoy 049? Or on your Allison V-12

I think it's on a Fairbanks Morse hit-n-miss or Briggs model B. Could be a Singer.

Sorry its a Weed Eater Twin v 18.5 hp Briggs and Straton. It keeps spitting fuel back up through top of carb. It doesn't sound like a stuck valve in the head.No loss of compression in eather cylinder .Is it possible float stuck in carb? Thanks for any help, and i did have a McCoy 049 in a Stuntmaster airplane when i was a kid.Thanks Jim

I suspect that a good carb cleaning, with the replacement of the float needle and seat, should solve your problem.

i I TOOK THE CARB APART AND BENT THE FLOAT SO IT WOULD KEEP THE NEEDLE SEATED AND IT WORKED THANKS FOR THE ADVISE. JIM.S
