Happened to me once, same exact thing. Bowl overflow goes to the canister and my floats were stuck. yours sound like they probably unstuck themsleves, but you might wanna pull the carb and throw a kit at it.

Ps. If that is what happened it should have been running (if at all) like crap!

Well then I will throw a kit at it. And it was running fine I couldn't tell there was a problem till I got out.

If that is the case I'd leave the carb alone till it acts up again.

I beg to differ on this one jim. A gasoline fountain under the hood is never something you should wait for to happen again.

I agree. At the time I did not have my fire retardent with me. I took the carb apart last night cleaned it up and checked tolerances it seems to be working fine. I am glad to know I am not the only one this is happened to and that there is a solution
