86 PRO V150 carb problem

[ToddB]

My middle carb is spitting fuel out the front of the carb past the choke butterflies. I dissambled the carb and everything looked fine. I then removed the intake manifold and looked at the reeds - all good none broken/none appear to be sticking. Any ideas besides reeds what might cause this? Air leak at the manifold gasket maybe? Compression tests on the two middle jugs was OK.

i would think a reed is not fully closing, youwill have to remove them, hold up to see if any light passes, and remember to use thread locker when reassembling them.
