Hi

Laid up my ‘97 Funduro about 16 months back. Put some fresh fuel in it on Friday and it’s pissing out from the overflow, and filling the Airbox. One of the drains was blocked, that didn’t help.

Took the carbs off and checked the floats, today, all seems to be in order, turned on the fuel once the carbs were back on the engine and it seemed ok, put everything back together (yes, the Airbox is a Bollocks to get out, and just as entertaining to replace) and tried again, and it’s pissing out again. I mean, like lots.

Any ideas?

Thx
Simon
 
Mikeyboy, Ta,

any more pointers, before I go through the grief of taking it all apart again?

Ha,
Split the air box in situ and take it out in two halves if you can get the screws undone.
Iirc you cannot get the o rings separately from bmw ,only a complete valve,,, kerrrching.
But the carbs are generic mikuni bst’s so same as fitted to a lot of japbikes (bandit 1200)
So maybe available from Suzuki
Unless you can get the correct dimensions from somewhere.
