Leaking carb
#1
Hi, Whenever i use my Recon i find that there is alot of fuel coming out of the drainage tube on the bottom of the carb, i have taken it apart and given it a good clean and inspection but i can find no problems.
I no that if you go up steep inclines it is meant to drain out as the fuel bulb rises but not when i am on flat ground ? also i cant seem 2 adjust it so im stuck ! i no there is alot of fuel going into the engine because if i hit the throttle it will die on me, i have found a leaning/richening screw on the bottom of the carb but i dont no which way to turn it. If anyone has any info please share it with me ! cheers.

Your float is sticking. Your air/fuel mixture screw doesn't have anything to do with fuel draining out of the carb. If a good cleaning didn't do the trick then go pick yourself up a good carb rebuild kit from your dealer and that should solve your problem.
