Hey Guys. For the last few days after i've rode short trips the next morning when i go to start my bike i've found a film of fuel beneath the carbs on my '79 XS-F. Now i am not sure where the leak is coming form but it looks like there could be some coming from the back of the float bowl. But after some time i tried switching the petcocks to reserve and placed a clean rage under the carbs for a night. The next morning there wasn't any fuel that i could tell on the rag or the bottom of the carbs. This leads me to think that the petcocks are allowing fuel to drain in to the carbs overnight? What do you guys think? Faulty petcocks/gasket?
I just removed the carbs because i have some tuning to do. I cleaned them this winter and the the needle and seat and all gaskets looked fine. I ordered a new float bowl gasket anyway to try and cover all the bases. The carbs are Bs38's btw.
Thanks guys
Garrett
