Ok so I am running a sportster tank on my 78 XS650 with mikuni vm 34s. My problem is my glass fuel filter will not stay full. I am running a vented cap with 5/16 fuel line and my entire set up is gravity fed. The filter is just after the petcock. While the bike is running down the road the carbs must be sucking just enough fuel to keep it running but when I come to a stop the bike really wants to cut out. Also if I loosen the hose clamp at the petcock a little bit the glass fills up completely. But In turn the fuel starts leaking. Am I missing something or what? Please help
