CRF's Only Forums

After replacing my fuel petcock and fixing a torn fuel hose to that petcock, I was ready to fire up the bike today. I turned the petcock to the ON position and now fuel is leaking out of the brass swivel fitting of the carb. Ugh.

Can someone tell me what I need to do to fix this? Please tell me I don't have to take the carb out of the bike to fix this....please. I see a screw next to the base of the fitting...maybe that releases it to replace an O-Ring?

you remove the screw and pull the fuel joint and replace the o-rings with this gasket kit:

Great news that it's an easy fix. Sucks that it's more $$.
Thanks Ken!!

you're welcome. if those are bad it makes good sense to assume the others are not far behind. so, replacement when you're replacing these.

Others? As in other carb gaskets in addition to those three?

I pulled the fuel joint and it looks like the two inner most O-Rings don't extend much past the OD of the shaft.

Am I correct to assume if I buy the carb gasket set 16010-KRN-671, that it has these O-rings and the others?

the gasket kit I provided a link to contains those gaskets and many others. since you are getting the kit you might as well use the others in the kit.
