Fuel and or oil or mix leaking

Yes, I think you check unlisted. Also is it made for children check "no"

Unlisted is better than public....at least for some people.

Found my problem over the weekend. Line that comes off the base of the power head and connectes to a check valve behind the carbs and manifold was rotted out. Replaced the short section from the hose barb on the motor to the check valve and no more leaking. Do you know what the check valve purpose is for? And thanks for you assistance.

Pretty sure it's so oil doesn't go the wrong way.

check valve on the recirculation hose is to stop flow back down in the crankcase that oily juice is meant to flow upwards only to the top top bearing


VERY old concept back to the 1950's still exists on modern ETEC engines

nothing new under the sun
