mx and sled 41

well this is my neighbours sled, and we were trying to get the thing going and it will start and idle for a bit, but when u gas it, it won't run unless you continually prime the thing. we tried changing the fuel pump with another sled, he just had his carbs cleaned, and the gas goes throuhg the line, almost to the carb, then stops, bubbles and goes back into the tank, i mena none of us there are mechanics by any means but this seemed to puzzle us all.

The check valve fell off the end of the line in the gas tank.

mx and sled 41

thanks we'll do that, and also i was thinking of a bunch of other things last night, so if that doesn't help it, we'll try clamping the lines too, even though it ran before with the lines not clanped, changing the fuel lines, then a fuel pump rebuild.
