How to stop the carb leaking
Posted: Sun Sep 30, 2018 8:03 pm
Dear Bullet tinkerers,
Can anyone help me stop my carb leaking? This is on an iron barrelled 350 from 2001. I can see drips forming on the bottom of the carb, and when I wiggle the bike there are many dribbles that come off. I already took the carb apart once - the float height was wrong and so I adjusted it. Took out the float valve, cleaned it, although it didn't look dirty. Squirted carb cleaner in the various orifices. Put it back together, and it leaks just the same!
