airbubbles in fuel tank

[nitrogator]

I've noticed on my aftershock that the tank vibrates the fuel alot and it seems the airbubbles get in to the line then the carb and then i get the high idle for a couple of seconds.is there anything i can do like maybe longer fuel line?

Are you running a fuel filter? You can spray a quick spritz of ArmorAll in your fuel (gallon) and it will act as an anti-foaming additive.

Is all your O-ring good condition? If there's a crack in one of them, then you need to replace it. It could also just be the fuel foaming. 1 spritz of Original Armor All into a gallon of fuel should take care of the foaming.

The armor all helps keep the fuel from foaming, not necessarily bubbles from a crack or anything.

i checked the tank and replaced all lines and am getting ready to put armorall in the gallon and try a refuel and see what happens

Hopefully you are using line you can see through. watch the fuel as it comes out of the tank and then after it passes through your filter. If you have bubbles after the filter but not before, there's your issue. I've seen more than one poopy fuel filter in my time.

thanks jetmechg550 i will look at that i will be out running soon.and yes i use clear line so i can see the fuel.
