The Standard uses vacuum; Special uses the infamous Octy.

trick for leaking gas.
remove the air box lower cover. Check carb intake bells for wet gas, determine which carb is leaking. Remove the drain bolt at the base of the float bowl for that carb. Using a small amount of compressed air blow In that float bowl hole. ( This will usually clear any debris and help stop the leak.79 1100 SF Carmine Red stock
