Petrol pouring out of the carb

[Guest]

I started my bus after about a week of layup from swapping out the front discs/spindles/calipers from early to late bay. I fired up the engine and petrol was running down from somewhere near the top of the carb. The fuel line seems to be in place and tight but i didint want to run it too long as a pool of fuel was lying in the engine bay. :shock:

Any ideas what my problem is...?

i bought a carb rebuild kit on recommendation from a very knowledgable friend but have never stripped a carb down. I'm a bit nervous but its not that hard is it?

maybe just a sticky float or valve, give it a tap with hammer then check again and do the refurb when you get 5, its really not hard mate
