Please add your bike's year & model to your signature line. Different KZ models have different carb setups. Ed

:huh: Could the question be re-phrased to reconcile the inconsistency between "flooding" and "not getting any fuel"?

Good Fortune!

im gussing the carbs are flooding because one of the carbs is not getting any fuel. so it just stops.

Does not compute. Flooding is a condition in which too much fuel is supplied and typically wets the spark plug and prevents it from firing properly. This condition cannot happen if there is no fuel going to the carb.

It might help if you describe in some detail exactly what happens from the time you start your bike until it stops running. Ed

ok so every time i try to go down the block it will stop half way. and it won't start after. but if i let some gas out, which i do by unscrewing that one bolt by the carb, it will start again and go down the block half way, stop, wont start and i would have to repeat the whole letting out some gas thing.
