My buddy just bought a cheep beater and the thing runs great but it started pressurizing and shooting fuel out the fill cap.like a lot of fuel he said the had a trail following them and it shut off and died.i had um pour water on the up and it fired right up.could the up be causing a pressure build up or somethin else

Well I would bet its pulling fuel from one tank, and returning to the other.

Ya I think it’s the tank selector there gonna bypass it and see cause it drained his whole front tank which he hadn’t filled up long before it happend
