carburetor rebuild question

[jeff1005]

My carb has been leaking out every tube (bottom and 2 side ones)I have tried taking it apart and cleaning it a couple of times.If I get the carb rebuild kit will this most likely take care of my carb trouble whatever it may be?Cause my other option is to just buy a used carb which wouldn't be much more than the rebuild kit from ebay.I really don't wanna buy the kit and not have it work,than have to wait for another carb.Thanks!

did you try to adjust your float yet and check your needle and seat

I bent the metal float tab upwards a bit still nothing,how do I check the seat?

 

[92blaster]

remove the pin that holds the float on and ur needle is attach to that metal tab so dont drop it and ur seal is the thing that the needle sits in so pull that out and see if its missing the little o-ring just make sure there is no damage to the seal and seat

I'll take a better look at it tomorrow.I'm looking in the manual, I don't remember there being an o-ring maybe that's it.thanks
