Of the two carb float bowls we have both check balls are stuck. This seems to be common.
What will happen to engine runability if the ball is jammed? We are having stalling issues when warm.
Thanks,

Spray some carb cleaner in the holes. They should come out by tapping against a block of wood. You could also blow them out with air. Just be care full where they go.
