So GLWrench and I were fixing a really bad carb leak today. We pulled the carbs, cleaned them off, and gave it a nice baby powder treatment.
We found BOTH carb bowls leaked at the mating surface o-ring. After replacing them and checking for leaks again we found the problem fixed.
Our question to each other was "why did both start leaking at once"? Has anyone seen this? GLWrench has been a Goldwing exclusive repair shop since they started making them, but these carbs were leaking so bad it was a steady drip. All bowl screws were tight.
Ideas??
