Carburetors puffing white smoke was created by Spec
So I bought a project bike.
I got it home I got it running . I went out and bought new wires and plugs as the old ones are cracked and worn.
After I had replaced each plug and wire it took a bit to get it started. I ran it but it would only rev up to about 7,000 RPM. And then it kept stalling out ?! Went to try to start it again and it started taking puffs of smoke out of the carb vent line and each filter. I haven't been able to get it to crank over properly since I've checked the spark plugs there firing and then a few hours later I had fuel coming out of the right carb on the far right side I'm new to bikes and I'm slightly confused cuz it was running fine before I change spark plugs
