i have a petrol leak from a tube that goes underneath the engine. i know nothing about fixing anything and would love the help when i turn the petrol off knob thing the leek stops it was going fine yesterday and today i noticed the leak
i dont even know what the pink tube is for it just dangles from the carboreta i think thats what it is
ps sorry about the bad spelling
i suggest u swich d petrol tap off and fill it up with petrol, put sum tissue in d petrol tank, get a lighter, set fire 2 d tissue, run away it will make a HUGE xplosion. And then u shud get a 125cc instead of dem sh*tty 50cc's. BEST IDEA EVER!

the pink tube is the overflow pipe,it means the carb is getting too much fuel and has a problem with either the float or float needle ,the float may have a split in it which will make it sink instead of float on top of the petrol or the flaot needle may not be seating in the needle seat properly and letting petrol past even though it is being pushed up by the float.you will need to remove the float bowl on the bottom of the carb and take the float off check there is no fuel insde it and then clean it out taking care not to bend or damage any parts,make sure the needle seat is free from and water or debris as this will cause the problem,i am a bike mchanic by trade so i know this will be where the problem lies ok,hop tht has helped you laura ,adam
