Dothejingle Posted May 28, 2019 Report Share Posted May 28, 2019 Just bought this 4mil banshee and when I release the choke to start it it starts but my fuel leaks through two tubes one connected to the carb and just goes down and the other idk where it’s connected to or where it’s supposed to be connected.

375hp banshees Posted May 28, 2019 Report Share Posted May 28, 2019 Probably just overflow hoses, from your floats not seating, does it leak when it's not running , fuel on ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

375hp banshees Posted May 28, 2019 Report Share Posted May 28, 2019 ""when I release the choke to start it"" Choke or on/off fuel valve? ""No it runs what’s left in the tubes and then turns off"" runs = drips? turns off= stops dripping? Or are you talking about engine running and turning off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

375hp banshees Posted May 28, 2019 Report Share Posted May 28, 2019 You have to check your float seat. either your float's set too high or sticking (you can try tapping on your bowl with a screwdriver handle and see if that seals it), your seat or needle is bad If tapping it doesn't fix it and or it starts doing it again, you'll have to take your bowls off (make sure you mark them left and right) hold your float up with your hand, turn the fuel on see if it still leaks. if so your seat is not sealing .if it does your levels probably set to high. when reassembling make sure the bowls are on the correct side and your choke tube is back in between the two carbs Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
