| Fuel continues to leak
Hey
I'm new to the whole pocket bike scene and know very little at all about the bikes. Even so, i've been busy painting my pocket bike over the past week or so and today I decided the give the bike a quick run with none of plastic fernishings on it.
Everything started out good. Engine started up easily, sounded normal. Revved it a little bit to get the fuel pumping through but then after a little while of it idling there, I noticed drops of liquid on the ground right below the engine. I turned the engine off straight away and it was petrol leaking from it. As the bike stood there, engine off but the fuel line open, fuel continued to drip out (about a drop a second) from a pink coloured tube right under the engine. I assume this is some sort of overflow release? So I turned the fuel line switch to 'off' and after a little while the drops finally stopped. After a while, I tried to turn the engine on again and it did start. Almost instantly, fuel started dripping out of the pink tube again. Revving the engine seemed to stop the dripping. Again, after stopping the engine, fuel continued to drip until the fuel switch was turned off.
I've read in other threads here that there can be needle or switch problems with the fuel valve which needs to be 'unclogged'. Two things: would my problem be due to some sort of clog with the needle and if so, where the hell is this located and how do I fix the problem?
Thanks,  |
