750 K1 carb trouble

<< < (2/2)

dieffe:
The carbs are still oozing petrol out, this time it appears to be from between the bowl and the body. I have ordered some new bowl gaskets, my logic being that they may well be 44 years old and therefore somewhat past it.
We will soon see. if they still leak I will bin 'em and put some flatslides on.


Just kidding.  :D

dieffe:
I'm sure I read somewhere that the bowls can still leak even with new seals fitted. Is it worth coating the seals with something like ThreeBond (which is the only sealant I have) or the like?

dieffe:
Just whizzed the carbs off again and fitted the new bowl seals and stuck a bit of petrol resistant sealant on for good measure. Just ran the bike up and so far no leaks.  :)
