G'Day, Need some help with 1 of my carby's on my banshee if someone or 1's can help me out, symptoms are just raw fuel flowing out main waste hose at bottom of carby on fuel tap side, tried tapping it in case float was stuck but to no help, even with fuel turned off if i give the bike a shake fuel starts to leak again? got any ideas or simple ways to try and eliminate the problem without having to remove it? gave the bike a gurney after last ride could this have adjusted the air screw or something? any help would be much much appreciated, i wanna ride stocko 2moz!!!! Hrm

You have probably picked up some debris in the needle and seat or water in the bowl. Disconnect the fuel line from the carb and blow some compressed air into the overflow hose on the bowl bottom. Stand back when you do it. This should blow out the problem but the best way is to remove the carb and clean it properly.

Ok i've cleaned needle and seat/ soaked the carby in cleaner for 45min washed/ compressed air dryed, blown out the whole thing 50 times checked the float its still level up side down, But still i get fuel outta the bottom carby overflow, and it also has little bubbles in it????? but bike runs and idles fine????? only when its idling does the fuel flow out? when ridding its ok only few drops every now and then? this has got me stumped????
