All is good except I seem to have a fuel leak at the carbs. The only things I did to them when they were off is open one of the black plastic covers, and I also removed two screws to zinc plate the throttle cable mount. I've also replaced all the lines but I cant see that being the problem.

Do these carbs have common areas of leaking? If so, anyone know where I can source some seals/gaskets locally?

Cheers
Where's the petrol coming out Ross, is it at the overflow outlets? Could just be the float valve not seating properly after a period of lay up??
