Just got my first bike, it's an 78 xs400E only has 7,500 miles
At running temp the carbs dump fuel... A whole lot of fuel.
Plan was to take carbs apart give them a good cleaning plus new gaskets. I got the carbs off and started at the bowls. Quick spray of WD40 on the screws and the bowls came off no problem. After getting everything out off the bottom I went for the top. Before even attempting to unscrew them, I could tell most were pretty stripped.
What's the best way to get these screws out? I don't have an impact driver but I'm sure I can borrow one.
If I can't get them out, I'll settle for some carb cleaner and a rag then pray that replacing just the rotted bottom gaskets fixes the fuel dump.
