So, I topped off with gas and added some seafoam and ran it for a while the other day to winterize the bike... noticed a few days ago, my garage smelled like gas... go out today and noticed a puddle of gas underneath , I see it dripping gas from the hose between the carb and air filter, and from the air filter (or it's just dripping down for another location)... I'm not a mechanic at all, and its now cold in ohio...before I ran it, there were no leaks, etc... Is there something simple I'm missing? photo attached... where two fingers are is where it's dripping... at the very least, how do I stop the leak until spring to take it in somewhere, without emptying the tank and having it rust? Shouldn't the petcock in the current position prevent gas from going into the carb in the first place?
Thanks all,
Steve
