Water intrusion into Johnson VRO 140's on 23 CC

[squidrig]

Hey John,
Water seperator looked fine with good gas in it, changed it anyways though. I'm wondering if there is any vacuum around that carb cover that would pull that much water in. The gaskets didn't look too hot either. Basically after the water seperator there is only the fuel pump and lines before the carb. There was condensation around the top two carb barrels as well. I can't imagine how that much water could get inside a that carb cover even if the gaskets were slightly damaged. I'll let you know what turns out. What engines are you running now?
