This engine has set up for 3 years, changed all filters and fuel lines, water pump and air filter. fuel tube in tank was broken and I did not know this but the engine would start and idle on fumes. When I replaced the tube the engine now floods out as soon as it starts. I bought a service manual but it has no info that is useful. The choke is shut, but I thought that normal when cold and just starting. 3 cyliinders are flooding top one is not. Any thoughts?

Sounds like the float in the VST tank is stuck open.

You need to send out your injectors to Brucato/Linda...get them right as the gas we have today is hell on injectors and carbs...I have your exact motor and mine were all over the place prior to cleaning...just my 02
