I have read some of the other threads about leaking carbs but couldn't find anyone with this same issue.
I have a carb that is leaking from the two holes on the part above the bowl (I am not sure what they are called or what they are for) as well as the overflow that comes out the rear.
I followed some of the suggestions being, cleaned the carb, removed the jets and float, and sprayed the holes out with carb cleaner. The float seems to be springing fine and i could see through the jets. I am at a loss on what could be causing so much leakage. would the throttle have anything to do with it? I left it attached because i didn't want to mess anything else up.
Oh and the best part is that the damn thing worked fine until I got the bright idea to clean it. I had to replace my cylinder gasket and helicoil a couple studs as that was my problem in the first place so i figured while i had it torn apart might as well clean the carb.
Can anyone figure what i could have done?
