dajogejr Posted June 4, 2009 Report Share Posted June 4, 2009 My lectrons, the two times the needle and seat had gunk in them, poured out the overflow tubes on the side, luckily not in the motor. Shayne, I remember that filled up cylinder @ Bobs...sheesh. Even after purging my bike more than it's needed, normally the day before I ride, I will take my carbs apart and brake clean the bejesus out of them. I can't stand starting a bike up on methanol only to have the carbs overflow. Shayne, keep in mind...a lot of guys break off the overflow tube on stock bowls and feed the PJ with this line instead of drilling/barb tapping the bowl elsewhere. So it can be a problem with stock bowls, too... Sorry to hear it Joe...lesson learned. Since that is a stock crank, go see Evan. I'm sure he has a gazillion old cranks laying around he could help you out with.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
