74 2.0 with Dellorto 36 duals has been running fine since I pulled it out of storage, got in it to run pick up a pizza the other day and it seemed to lack power, tonight I took the air filters off and turned on the fuel pump, holy crap the left front carb barrel started filling up with fuel! The rear barrel seemed fine, just the left front barrel??? Any ideas, I have pulled the carb and it looks okay, the only odd thin is the large spring under the brass nut is kind of gunked up. I'll go snap a pic.
These were purchased rebuilt from the guy in Italy, they ran fine all last year. |

Since you already have the top off the carb, simply pour some gas in the bowl and see if it still leaks. If it doesn't leak, then check the needle valve as advised by Type 11969.
If the bowl won't hold fuel, then it is a leak. |
