Is it the carb drain plug?- Video

[sho_greg]

You can fast forward to about 4:30... Found out some cool things about the camera- when I zoom in the sound changes...

 

But at around 4:30 you can see the drip (Sorry its sideways).. look like the drain plug?

Cannot tell about the drain plug the whole area looks very wet, at the first part of the video it looks like you are sucking in air at the top of the carb boots make sure they are tight but be careful not to strip the screws out.

I saw what looked liek a drip at about 5:12, but it was dripping off what appeared to be one of the float bowl retaining screws (allen head screw).

 

If it's coming out of there, you've got a leaking bowl seal.

 

Would be highly unusual, I never seen one fail without it being pinched or cut by some ham fisted maintenance.

 

I'd be looking at hte fuel feed line or the tubing up on top if it were me chasing down a leak. I've seen those leak more often than a bowl o-ring....

I agree with Great White, where I see the drip is from one of the allen head screws that hold the float bowl on so its probably a leaking bowl gasket. I have seen them leak, albeit rare.
