So i replaced the FB tank. I will do a separate post for that. Cleaned the carb thoroughly, cleaned the intake manifold and cleaned up any sticky brown residue i could reach with a rag.
Currently there is still an issue with a brown sticky residue getting onto the slide and all over the intake manifold. It's not coming from the tank and the float bowl has perfectly clean gas with no dirt etc.
What could be causing this build up? I've pulled the carb and manifold and cleaned it up three times and yesterday it's still building up and causing the slide to stick. It's all over the intake.
Any thoughts will be appreciated?
Fiber glass tanks have given me NOTHING but grief, in my ownership of Nortons for 31 years. :evil: I've only used steel ones for the last 6 years, and had no more grief.
