Orange-65 Posted September 29, 2012 Share #1 Posted September 29, 2012 I have a gas leak coming out of the drain tube front left next to radiator. Leak only occurs when bike is running. It is an 05 RSV. I have taken the quad carbs completely off, cleaned all the floats and needles....Put it all back together and was going for a ride but again the leak......Any thoughts????

mbrood Posted September 29, 2012 Share #2 Posted September 29, 2012 Sounds like the drain screw isn't seated either by grit or damage? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orange-65 Posted September 29, 2012 Author Share #3 Posted September 29, 2012 I cleaned all the bowls, needles, ckecked all floats, reasembled and put back on. It only leaks if the motor is running....Could it be a pump problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbrood Posted September 29, 2012 Share #4 Posted September 29, 2012 I don't believe the bowls get 'pressurized' by the pump, when the bowl float raises and shuts off the flow the pump stops. When running you have fuel flow, vibration and probably upright to get the leak? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orange-65 Posted September 29, 2012 Author Share #5 Posted September 29, 2012 You are leaning toward a float or trash on a needle being the prob???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
