My 1985 Honda Quad will not run properly without gas pouring out of the center gasket on the fuel pump. Where is the pressure switch someone mentioned? My pump is pounding hard and I expect is the reason for the leaks on 2 new pumps I've installed. I now suspect I've got way too much pressure. The pump should stop clicking when optimum pressure is reached. There isnt any pressure switch in my fuel line so what am I looking for?
Thanks for any help. This thing is driving me to drinking!!!!lol

What model is the ATV in question? Where did you source the fuel pump from? Is the fuel pump relay working correctly?

If bowl gasket is leaking you need to rebuild the carb .do this first.
The float valve may not be able to handle the fuel pump.
Always use OEM parts. You’ll get the best combination of performance and reliability by using OEM.
