Hello, I'm not sure what's going on with my Brat. I am by no means a carb expert, but I think I'm flooding. While driving my Brat stops responding to the gas pedal and idles down to a stall. I let the car cool down for an hour and it will fire right up again. This seems to happen when I drive 30miles or more. It has happened to me 4 times now. I believe I am running a lil rich, the make shift exhaust I'm running backfires when I let off the gas pedal while driving. The carburetor was just rebuilt, jetted and all has all new gaskets. I checked for cracks on all the hoses connecting to the carb already. I know carbs can be pretty finicky. Has anyone else had a similar problem?

 Is your fuel pump the original, or an exact replacement? Many pumps have too much pressure/flow and will fill the float bowl too high. 

Its an exact replacement, is there any way to adjust it?

You can put a adjustable fuel pressure regulator with a gauge they are $40 and up

Thank you
