I pretty much had the same thoughts. But I'd still like to know how gas is getting into the cavity . Sometimes it's half full, sometimes 3 carbs have gas there and one is bone dry. All kinds of different combinations with seemingly no pattern.

It just doesn't seem likely the top cover gasket is getting saturated and then the gas is wicked by capillary action into the cavity . These carbs are about two years old and part of a Weber set up purchased from Jim I.

Are the rest of you guys getting any gas in the cavity ?
