That wouldn't only affect steep uphills. And I've reamed it out previously.

Ok so what I've done last night is.
1. re-angle the carb that was on a slight lean, but heck maybe 3 degrees & the bike could easily be on that.

Now looking at the carb it appears the float should be opening not closing up.


2. So in desperation I looked at a float bowl nut extension & decided to make my own just with a 3.5mm ally washer with an o-ring groove turned into it.
also put some grooves in it so it will refill from the bottom of the carb (there are holes but sometimes they don't line up as I saw on my other PWK that was open).

This will give a tickle more fuel as the bowl gets tipped over.

But I'm still not convinced & I can't see why it isn't refilling quick enough.
