>My TR-6 finally started. Took a while but finally starts.
Only one little problems. Since I don't have the air cleaner installed. I
noticed that gas comes gushing out of a hole in the carbs. Is there
supposed
to me a cap in it? I can't imagine that the air cleaner will stop the gas
from flowing out.
Please help. My neighbors are going to start complaining.

Patrick, the reason gas is gushing out of the port on the carb is the float
valve is not closing off. This could be from a piece of debris in the
valve or varnish is holding it open (varnish results from long periods of
inactivity). In either event you may have to pull the carb off and clean
out the float chamber and valve.
Good luck and enjoy.
