I've dropped the jetting and the needle on my 1980 CR125,cleaned the carb with some berryman B12 after each cleaning it seems to run fine for a while then it runs rich and pukes out of the exhaust ports.It had been sitting for a long time when I bought it had been sitting for a long time could the old gas be inside the tank or the fuel line.I've flushed the tank out several times but I was wondering if the tank could have absorbed the old gas .
