Re: leaking carb

Why can't I run a 4 minute mile? I always could before? Actually I couldn't but you get the point. It leaks because there is a leak. Stuff happens. Where is this leak? If it is leaking out the bowl vent, the carb needs to be rebuilt because the inlet needle and seat are not sealing properly, the float is stuck, or both. If fuel is leaking from a gasketed joint, it needs to be disassembled, cleaned, and reassembled with a new gasket.
