OLM8 83 Posted May 31, 2020 Hi allRecently the carby housing on my stock 250log started to weep fuel while its being driven. I’ve checked the flange nuts and the 2 large screws that hold the carb to the throat housing, all tight. I’m suspecting it’s worn in the throttle butterfly shaft and actually weeping from there or possibly the mixture screw area. The still runs ok, however the idle speed can sometimes be erratic. I do believe the needle valve is not worn and the float level is ok as I have checked it. Have you guy’s seen this before?Any thoughts? Thanks in advance Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dex 2,065 Posted May 31, 2020 Easy way would be to fully degrease and scrub the whole area ,, like real finicky like . then a short run would show the area it’s coming from ,, speed and fans etc will “ move “ leaks from places , Ie blow crap everywhere ,, so take good note of the leaks origins 1 OLM8 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
