Kawasaki FC 420?

Postby Bob1190 » Wed Jul 30, 2014 12:07 pm

I have a Kawasaki fc420 I believe. ID tag missing.
Fuel is dumping into. Crankcase. I replaced needle valve. Float not sticking. I shut off gas supply when not running.
I thought it was blow by. Haven't check compression, but the engine starts 3 pulls at the most. Runs fine. Any suggestions would be appreciated

Thanks,

Bob

Could have a ruptured fuel pump diaphragm.
