Floats stuck open? Did you put them in the right direction? Did you set the fuel screws to a common value between all carbs. Sometimes people turn out the screws to compensate for clogged jets. Stuck enrichening plungers? Try starting it with the throttle opened to dry it out. Sent via BlackBerry by AT&T

I just started work on a 550 Nighthawk. I cleaned the carbs before trying to run it although the PO had it running and I was there with him. Now with the carbs back on it runs on 1 and 4 but #'s 2 & 3 are just flooding. The gas is going straight out the mufflers. Seems to have good spark on all 4. The carbs were relatively clean before I cleaned them. Compression is excellent. Bike has only done 11k miles. I have the tank off and am running it through a funnel and hose so it can't be the pet cock. Any suggestions?
