Re: Leaking carb on 125cc pitbike

It Still Does it from time to time. But less than before I fitted the filter. I think some dust must be getting through the foam air filter. I usual just drain the Carb’s tank then blow up the drainage pipe.

Re: Leaking carb on 125cc pitbike

That you very much for your advise. Took it apart, checked everything you mentioned. It still leaked. Went to the shop where I bought it, he suggested adding a £2 filter to the fuel line and magic!! All fixed. Thank you again for your help.
