I don't know if it's a problem but it certainly could be, the short hoses are positioned so that if they over flow the gas will be dumped on (1) a spark plug or (2) the exhaust,,,,not good. I added some long hose so that if such a thing happens the gas will be dumped out bu the parachute, the hoses must face opposite to the flow of air otherwise the the bowls could become pressurized and the engine will quit.

Mike, please re-read what I wrote about hose positioning.
