fuel dripping from head pipes


Recommended Posts

so i rode my shee last weekend and since then i have noticed some fuel leaking from what looks to be where the head pipes meet the cylinders..

 

would this be leaky needle and seats or floats.....the fuel was shut off right after i parked it this last weekend its not a huge amount of fuel but enough to make a spot on the floor about the size of a basketball for the span of about a week

 

and comments of what it could be would be appreciated

 

thanks

well if your fuel was shut off....then it shouldn't leak at all. Are you sure its fuel? if it is then take your sparkplugs out and slowly turn the motor over and see if you get fuel spraying out the plug holes..........it almost sounds as if your floats got stuck open and for some reason your fuel wasn't off and it filled your pipes....

fuel is and has been shut off the whole time

 

i looked closer and it looks like its dripping from 2 of the case nuts on the bottom
