Hello,
I have been rejetting my carbies and now they are back together I am getting fuel leaking out of the breather on number 3.
I think it is caused by the needle and seat. They are clean and I swapped the needle from 3 to 4 and 3 still leaks.
Does this mean the seat is screwed?
Is there anything else that can be causing the problem.
I have rebuild kits on the way from the states but just want to see if there is anything else I can try before they get here.
Cheers.
 
Just to add it only happens when the bike is running and leaks through the needle jet hole and where you put the morley air blocker brass piece. Bike runs well just pisses out fuel..
 
perhaps the float is too high, or stuck? causing too much fuel to be pumped into the bowl.
 
Sorted it out.
The pin the the float sits on was bent. Straightened it out and all good. Thanks for your advice Ninja....
 
h0ly $h!t. i finally got one! booyah! that stay at a holiday inn last night must've been it.
