I recently more or less finished a very sized B . While i made a fuel tank for it i have been running it by putting fuel into carb and it ran well. now fitted tank and it keeps flooding and running away. So added another copper washer to lower fuel level. Still same. What am i missing? Any help please .Arthur.

Right on both counts Appletop! I lost the bolt the holds the pipe to the tank and made one. I took it out and machined a little more clearance and that helped. And while i was at it added another washer. Now runs unattended . Thanks for your help Arthur.
