Fuel leak help


Recommended Posts

One of the little nipples (41) on the fuel line T (43) is leaking. Anyone have a similar problem and were you able to find a source for the nipples other than Yamaha?

The numbers refer to the Yamaha parts site, carb section. Picture attached.

In any event it appears I will have to pull the carbs and split one pair apart to make repairs.

Living in Mexico is great until you need parts for your ride.

I just fixed mine. it started leaking while I was on vacation.

I looked all over, and the only place was either the stealership, or the online parts store.

mine were 10 bucks a piece, and look like they may cost a penny to make..

and you do have to break apart the carbs to replace it, but, you can loosen the main bolts, but only take off the nuts on the side you are splitting apart, be careful where the 2 carbs join as one for the throttle, there is a spring in there.. not how it goes back in..pull apart far enough to pull out the leaky side of the T replace seal, put back in and wiggle it around...blow in main fuel tube and check for a leak, once carbs are out it takes about and hour to split fix and reassemble..

good luck...
