Why is this of concern to me? The fuel line is obviously full when the engine is running. When the engine stops the fuel in the line isn't going to stay there, it's going to drip down into the float bowls. In the case of the GT6, I have an inline filter just before the carbs. The fuel from the line and the filter is draining down and overfilling the float bowls when the engine stops. That fuel is dripping onto the frame. It's also likely to be the reason I found fuel pooled in the intake manifold when I removed the carbs this past weekend.
Have you or anyone you know modified the fuel line routing so it is always going "up" instead of down? Inquiring minds want to know!
