Yes, I only had two, my one bbl weber, and a zenith that I had just
put on before I went to Moab, but had not taken off road yet. Any little
downhill and the engine would instantly die and wouldn't restart until
things leveled off again. Worked ok uphill though. So I put the Weber
back on. It worked fine downhill, it worked fine uphill, but it didn't
work well over bumps. This kind of sucked when going up the Dragon's
Tail? in the dark. I did slowly make it though. The third time was just
adjusting the float level in the Weber. Worked great after that.
