    150 intruder leaking fuel from some unknown spot

    First I thought it was the o-ring on the black plastic fuel rail so I replaced all 6 of those but now the carbs seem to be wet and dripping a small amount of gas. I cannot find the source of the leak. The left side of the motor seems to be the worst and is always wet rear the bottom 2 left carbs by the bowl.
    The first carb is dry.
    I have checked all the ruber lines and they are mostly dry but the one comming from the fuel pump or whatever that electronic thing is in the center of the motor is wet but I cannot tell if its wet from somewhere else or it is leaking. I have dried everything off with compressed air then wiped it out then ran it again and everything just gets wet but I cannot see the source I can take pictures if it helps.


    Also the cover on the front that covers the carbs and attaches with 4 rubber straps are those straps replaceable? the one on the lower left the leaking side has failed and broke.

    Probably leaking from the BB's in the carb bowls. Mix up some marine tex and put it over them. BTW you will have to pull the carbs off the throttle plates. Good luck.

    It's so common for those bb's to leak that covering them with a bit of epoxy is a standard part of a carb rebuild anymore. Just gotta get all that gas off first to make sure the epoxy sticks. Remember, it has oil in it.

    Yep, I used JB weld on a FastStrike once.

    BRP cleaning solvent works wonders.
