Fuel leak
I have fuel pouring out of one of the overflow hoses today on my way to work. Stuck float? short of dropping a match, what can be done, tool-less-ly, when I leave tonight so I don't run out of fuel on the way home?

sounds like a plan. I really don't have the free time to pull them out. I rebuilt them 2 years ago, and I wouldn't think I should have this issue this soon.

How does the inside of the tank look?
***edit***
don't get carried away with blowing into the tank trying to dislodge foreign material between the needle and seat. wouldn't want to much extra fuel into those cylinders would we?
how is the oil level?Last edited by rustybronco; 07-15-2011, 04:00 PM.

well, carb still leaking like a river. drove it home around 6000 rpm to try to at least BURN some of the excess fuel. Guess I'll have to yank them. I thought I'd be able to ride this for A season without having to wrench on it
