Carb issues
Well, I took the air horn off my Nikki today, and adjusted and cleaned the float valves, and the floats. I fired it up, let it run for a few minutes (it was still warm) and shut it off. I fixed the stuttering at idle, and surging, but for some reason, if I wait about 2 minutes, gas begins to build up on the secondary throttle plates. So I restarted, and ran it again. I looked real close after I shut it off, and gas appears to be coming out of the throttle shaft!Nothing seemed to be running out of the secondary venturies. I did notice that the venturies do move a little bit back and forth, is that normal? Are my throttle shafts worn?
Please help, this flooding **** while shut off is getting very aggrivating to start at WOT.....

Just stick with it and keep tapping it. I came to believe its a rebuild blues type thing. They say when you mess with the needles they need to seat again or something, I let mine sit over night and it worked fine, I had the EXACT problem. I also made sure like 10 times the vent solenoid was working. You'll hear a pretty decent loud CLICK or CLACK . Just keep tapping and trial and error, they're real simple in stock form.

Like Anex says, if that solenoid isn't hooked up...
