Cleaned carbs, still won't start and fuel is slowly dripping out of airbox drain

good question.. you could order the whole valve assembly from bike bandit.. or hit up somebody who has extra parts kicking around.

The Bhudda can sell you a whole o-ring kit.  I took my old o-ring to a bin full of o-rings and got the two sizes that closely matched.  Since the ones in your carbs are probably no longer round in cross section, you won't find the exact size.  Sorry I didn't observe the correct size when I got mine in.

Should only cost a buck or two.

going to grab a couple o-rings today at auto store and see if that helps anything.

Side question.  Since I replaced the float bowl screws with allen head bolts I can drop the float bowls with the carbs still on the bike.  With that being the case, would I be correct in saying if I bend the tang UP (towards the float valve assembly) that would then LOWER the gas height?  Seems backwards but thats the correct way right?

Thanks,

Correct ... and here is another item the buddha got but wont sell ...

One set is going in joystick's bike ... he fancies himself quite the mechanic ... so I'd help him I think. Then 1 set for me ... all mine ... all mine ... mu hahahahahahahahahahaha ....

Floats, spigot, and needle in 1 ... you drop it and the whole thing comes out like 1, no separate fiddling seat, needle which will run away soemwhere and then working on getitng them back in ... muahahahahahahahaha hahaha hahaha hahaha .....

All in 1 floats, spigot, needle 1 plastic conglomerate.

You can split them if needed by yanking the floats out of their slots.
The biggest advantage actually is how you can eve get pilots out with this setup ... all you need is a short thin slotted screw driver and a pilot with a good head.
Cool.
Buddha.
