Petrol everywhere!!!

[weirdbeard]

Went to come home on gt 550 tonight, fired it up and was running rough on three cylinders mostly. Couple of minutes later smelt petrol. Bit dark but apears to be coming out of airfiter box. Gonna investigate tomorror. In the mean time any body got any theories? Float needle stuck?

had the same problem on a bike, it ended up being cack in the carbs that stuck the float on 'on', it felt as rough as hell then finally flooded itself.....
a strip down sorted it

Cheers mate was suspecting something like that.

crap in the needle valve

ive tried that and its really difficult, the needles very small and its difficult to aim properly, and messy if you miss . best to take it apart and clean it instead :D
