I am not familiar with A2 - but not knowing never stopped me from
speculation, does this vehicle have electric fuel pump?? and if it does is
it possible that fuel pump is running with engine turned off and forcing
fuel past needle in carb.???

Hi All ,
            The only other way is down the bores, due to a very over rich
mixture , ie the choke out for FAR to long or the choke stuck in period . Is
the fuel consumption very poor , is there an internal leak in the carb ?
Are the plugs sooty or black ? Is there an ignition fault thats leaving
unburnt fuel ?
More clues = more answers .
