Hi toke my gas gas txt pro 300 apart after my trial to give it a good clean put it back together and now when I turn the fuel on its leaks fuel out the join where the carburettor connects to the air box any ideas wot the problem could be or will I need a new carburettor if so anyone no where I can get one?

Thanks

It sounds like the float is stuck and not shutting the supply off. Take the carb back off remove the bowl and check the float isn't jammed.

check the floats are the right up

Yeah ok just looked at it and it looks like it is jamming open witch is stopping it from closing and its not cutting off the fuel what could I do to stop this?

Thanks

It looks like it comes out to far and jams open

Refer to my first post

Yeah the floats can't cut it of because its jammed open soon as the fuel comes through so how do I repair it or do I need to buy a new carb?

Have you put the floats back in upside down? I don't think you can but it's something to check

If your fuel needle isnt stuck open with dirt, you probably have the floats upside down. Flat side of the float goes to the bottom of the bowl.

You can always take a look at the parts diagrams at Gas Gas.com or Gas Gas's (.es) spain (AKA manufacture's website, might tell you what your doing wrong. Which carb do you have? Kehin's are tricky to take apart, and assemble, if you force it on the Kehin, you can bend stuff.
