My carbie filled up with petrol :mad:

[kennaz]

Its meant to float on the fuel so it should move up and down this is how it regulates the flow of fuel into the carby.

well looks like the bikes going into the shop then. everything yo guys suggested i have done and its still f*cked. drops of fuel still comes out of the overflow hose.

ok then, One last thing. is the float meant to move up and down or is it meant to be stiff? Like in the one position?

otherwise it would be called a 'stiff' and not a 'float'

come on dude dont get all upset when people are trying to help you.

If you pull out the float (dont bend it whatever you do) there is a little needle and seat under it (actually above it but your carby will be upside down) this is wat is causing the problems. Give it a clean and carefully put it all back togeter.
