i just put my edelbrock quicksilver carb on. i had to change my fuel line b/c my stock one wasn't long enough. for some reason i run out of fuel now. i look down at my fuel line and it has nothing in it. i shake it a couple times and it fills back up. the fuel tank just can't feed it gas fast enough while the throttle is pinned. has anyone else had this problem?

the fuel line doenst have any up bends and is it higher than the petcock that might make the problem if it is

hi i also have a eddelbrock carb on my 06 yfz450 i had the same prob until i looked closer and the clipps that come with the carb arent tight enough and air just sucks in from the line so i just put a hose clamp on mine it worked perfect.
