    Good mornin to all, hope you are all havin a great weekend !
    Am still trying to get my mc19 all sorted out but just keep coming across small problems here and there.
    My latest one is this, have replaced the fuel pump and all fuel lines as the fuel lines were old and brittle, but now i have fuel leaking and dripping from where the fuel line joins into the back of the carbies, have made sure it is supertight but it still keeps leaking from around the end of the hose or the plastic connector on the carbies ! Does anyone know something about this or had a similar problem ? Need help !
    Thanks.

    Thank's for the info kiffsta & mclaren, i figured it could be T piece or something roundabouts, p o said it was leaking from somewhere back there but he didnt know a thing bout bikes. I s'pose you gotta pull the carbies completely apart just to replace said piece's too ay ! ha ha

    Dont be frightened about pulling down carbs... they are surprisingly easy.. you will sort it mate..

    Yeah, thank's Tim, no doubt i probably could do it ! Have been muckin round with cars and stuff since i was a kid ! But just pissed at mech's, pay good money to have someone go over bike completely & let me know what needs doing, they do the carb's while its there, & 3 weeks later leaking !
