    Fuel pump started leaking where the two housings were joined. A LOT. So off comes the fuel pump and she sits dry for couple weeks. Plus it got COLD!!!!! Put the new fuel pump back on today along with fresh fuel lines and new filter. Cranked her up and watched it leak like crazy. I know its normal because I went through it with the carb reinstall awhile back.......BUT damn it drives me nuts! :confused:
    Sorry for the rant.

    PS Chinese reg rectifier oozing after couple thousand miles. :chaingun: Get what you pay for! Looks like I will be doing "The Drill" this winter! Thanks for all the contributors on the forum as I would be totally lost without you guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!:thumb:

    Check fuel lines for cracks, including under the clamps !

    Ps. I know that when I replace that last piece you will be right! Probably cracked right at the edge of the clamp on the carbs. Just like the piece that fell apart connecting to the petcock when I took it apart! Keep them critters warm and thanks for the advice in advance!
