  • carb question

    I notice that on the number one carb there is a very slight bit of gas right where the throttle butterfly pivots. It is just an occasional small drop. There are no other leaks, from the fuel line fittings or from the airbox. My main question is will this get worse or is it a livable problem.

    You can still get those seels and I imagine it will only get worse if you don't change them out.

      I agree. Once a carb starts to drip at the throttle shaft, it will only get worse over time.

      Once you un-can a can of worms, the only way to re-can them is with a bigger can.
