float bowl (carb) leak problem 120-130

posted by  someone claiming to be rainy_NW on  Mon Nov 28 06:13 CST 2005 [RELATED]



Hey,

Yesterday I found that I had sprung a pretty major leak at the bottom of one of the float bowls of my carb set-up. Feeling around under the bowl revealed that the little tube connecting the bowl to the bottom of the carb-chamber was so loose that it came right out at the connection between bowl and tube.

I'm wondering what I'm in for in repairing this? It's in a place where it is very hard to see how it is connected or if it is repairable. Will I require a completely new tube? Does anybody think I could repair this without having to pull off the whole manifold assembly so that I can tip it up enough to be able to work under it and see what's going on?

Thanks all.
