What type of engine is it? Its probably the fuel sloshing about in the carb float chamber. its worth checking the float level just in case it isn't right.

33.7mm, with the float chamber lid turned upside down with the floats resting hard on the ballbearing. If you measure with the ball bearing spring unsprung :? (you'll see what I mean when you do it) then its approx 37mm.
