Yes this could be the case with carbs that are mounted beyond the maximum angle as designed by Weber.

I haven't seen a spec for deviation from the vertical plane for IDFs or IDAs, but the maximum recommended above the horizontal plane for DCOEs (sidedraughts) is 7 degrees as specified by Weber.

I have DCOEs going on one of my other cars, I haven't measured the angle yet, but I know it will be close (touch and go).

I think that how the float can control the average float level has a bearing on this.
With the downdrafts, if they are tilted towards the pump jet side of the carb, does this bring on this issue?
