It has been tuned up and runs fine - until the other day when out driving the carb flooded out in an intersection. Read up on issues and talked to some people and the problem seemed to be stuck floats. Quick fix was suggested "rap the sides of the carb with a screwdriver handle". Seems to have fixed the problem so far. My big question is - will this reoccur? and if so, what should be done to preclude this problem? Fuel filter is new, gas should be good - not old. Any suggestions or advice? TIA.

Pump mechanical or electric, filters placement? How many miles on this carb? How did you set float levels initially.

I can explain it to you, I can't understand it for you.
