helloo, this mornin i went out to my bike baring in mind it was frezing last night and my bike was outside, toped it up with 2 stroke started it and left it to run for 5 minutes then turned it off, left it hour or so then tried starting it and it wont go, it starts for a second then dies, sometimes long enough to give it throttle but then it dies!spark plugs fine and the carb took it of and cleaned it and still nothin! left it at home for a while came home and all the petrol had leaked out the overfolw pipe, could anyone help me pleasee!!!!!!

you mean all the petrol in the tank leaked out...so you left the tap ON ?

float needle not seating or set incorrectly, if its coming out the overflow O.o

ive always left the petrol on when i leave the bike and its never leaked before, and now the whole tank of petrol leaked out, how do you adjust the float, i have the carb in bits infront of me now

well lesson learned, always switch it off from now on lol

soo what do you think the problem is though?

its been so cold it might have been a drop of water that froze into ice and opened the float valve it's jst a guess because you dont suddenly go from being ok to this situation! you should run a bit of fuel out of the tank it will bring the water with it if there is some, and leave the plug out so the flooded engine will evaporate away...then try again after a day or so. While you have the carb in bits examine the seating of the float valve to see if it's worn ..a visible wear ring around it

the whole tank leaked out???

im sure that should take quite a while..

are you sure it came out of the over flow?

id have a look at the fule line from the tap to the carb..

could be knackerd, or if u have a inline fule filter "one of those clear jobbys" that could be cracked and leaking..
