I have a 2005 Yamaha GRizzly.. Great condition.. 110 hours 660 miles.. Ridden or at least started for 5 minutes ince a week... Lately my grizz will just leak gas overnight.. If the gas selector is ON and it sits overnight like that there will be a huge puddle of gas in the morning. It comes out of the tube that comes out of the bottom of the CARB.. Any idea why it is doing this? What can I do to fix it and how? I just replaced all the gas with stabil in it.. Any advice is greatly appreciated.. Thank you Blake

 

the valve on bottom of bowl is bad! you can ether replace(recomended) or stick a bolt up in there which would be a cheap and dumb way to fix

 

when you say the valve, are you refering to the screw located just above the drain tube? Or is the valve what the hose goes into? I really appreciate your help.. CARBS are my weak link.. you should have seen me try to tune dual carbs on my jet ski..It was not pretty

 

I saw range rover in your little profile.. I have a Rover as well.. discovery

 

yea what the tube goes into if you want to you can take the bowl to a parts place or go to powersportspro.com to get a new one. You can look at a diagram to find it NP

 

one last question, what is the trick to getting the valve out? Plyers ??? or do i need to take the whole bowl off? thanks again

 

sorry but i have never taken it out i just have heard that when it drips gas from there that the valve(also known as float) is bad
