What will cause my float bowls to go dry

Are you saying the fuel from the bowl is leaking back into the tank?

I'm saying it's possible, yes......or if the fuel pump diaphragm is ruptured, it could be going into the oil pan. From the carburetor down to the pump, it has gravity on its side.

Are you saying now that it is not possible for fuel from the bowl to leak back to the tank?
