78 standard reporting again... Posted earlier that cyl 3 was the only one firing after a carb removal and cleaning. Well, today it chugged to life on all four and idles smoothly. However, the two plastic tees (which at the moment are not connected to anything as the airbox isn't on yet) below the fuel inlet tees are now rushing fuel through them. This it did not do last night. So I shut the fuel supply off, the rushing stops and the motor happily idles till it runs out of gas. Also, while the gas is rushing out those two tees, it appears that gas is also weeping out of an orifice horizontally opposite of the air pilot jet on #2 (L to R) carb. Any thoughts?

The fuel lines go to the lower tees. The upper tees are the bowl vents and attach to the nipples on the airboxGreg
