tobi evans Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Had to stop using my xj700 maxim to commute until i have time to look at it, everytime i stop at a junction or traffic lights it wets its self! Cant find the leak but petrol is running from the bottom of the carbs like a tap but stops when the engine is off. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noise Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Might be the carbs drain screw? or the float chamber gasket is shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slice Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Give the bottom of the carb bowls a sharp (not hard) tap with the end of a wodden screwdriver or hammer handle, probably just a stuck float. Remember DON'T belt it "TAP IT" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tobi evans Posted September 6, 2012 Author Share Posted September 6, 2012 It appears to be the connector the fuel line attaches to the carb, what a bummer man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
