Folks,
Went out to a recently restarted 914 this am to grab some tools and noticed a wet spot under the car -- passenger side. Big wet spot. I'm thinking hmm I don't recall any rain--hmm--what's that smell??? It's gas of course. So I'm about to go look closer -- is there an easy way to pinch off or plug the incoming gas line while I sort out the real leak? tia kim. |

QUOTE(Carl @ May 15 2003, 09:08 AM) Lawrence & Kim, It seems to me that the float valves should have stopped the flow unless there's a leak in the line, a stuck float valve (BTDT) or a passage that allowed gas to escape from the carb. C Well, it's of course possible that the gas on the carbs (a new thing, but with the stock air cleaner on, not visible instantly) could be a separate problem. That would mean that I have two problems. Hm. Better and better! Thx Carl. |
