Fuel leak.
SteveW:
I always turn the fuel tap off about 1/4 mile before I get home so the carbs are pretty empty when I put her back in the garage.

Yep.
I had a Raleigh Runabout 50cc when I was 16 (1974)
Petrol was 10/- a gallon and you added your own 2 Stroke oil from the squirter thing on the forecourt.

I had a Raleigh Runabout and a Wisp at about the same time, i was about 12, then i got a 56/57 Lambretta ld125, they all got thrashed to death, and they all had the same 20 to 1 mix from the Total garage at the end of our street, my sister worked there so sometime s it was cheaper than 10/- a gallon.
Bradders:
Thanks for your replies Guys. I’ll try some Redex. Also Peter the previous owner advised turning the tap off before you get home to run the bowls dry but I sometimes forget....
