Fuel Leak Trailboss 330
All
This is more of a heads up to other Trailboss owners. I have an 03 and recently found fuel leaking down the lines and dripping onto my frame. Upon closer inspection I found both fuel line clamps cracked. They fell in 2 pieces when I touch them with my fingers! And both fuel fittings extremely loose. They were backed out of the tank about 3/32" or more. There is no way they could have rotated that much from vibration as the fuel lines prevented them from turning. I believe they were loose from the factory. Again, just a heads up. It may be a good idea to check any model that uses the same system. Certainly check your clamps and replace with better ones. I put regular screw type hose clamps on mine.
