Can an AC fuel pump suddenly increase pressure? I've been running fairly OK for a month or so, and suddenly smelled gas. My forward carb (on my 1098) started overflowing. I observed this after turni

A fairly common fault is a perished rubber hose between the tank and the pump. The cracks may close up so that it may not leak petrol, but can still allow the pump to draw in air under suction. If t
