I hear of people having problems with their float sticking and causing fuel to leak out of the carb. My friend says when he hits a bumb sometimes the float sticks. I plan on riding my bike off road a lot and I don't want this to happen to me while I am up in the mountains. Do any of you have any tricks or ideas to keep this from happening?

I searched the forum and couldn't find an answer to this.

Thanks for the help!

You mean where the pin goes through the float/needle???There`s nothing there for it to get stuck on....First thing I do is install a FUEL FILTER......Pretty simple carb. but the smallest peice of junk will mess up your day.....
