Hi

Recently I have noticed that there is fuel around the needles on my engine. I have the F4.1. There is loads of fuel around the HSN, LSN and the idle needle. There is also some on the first fin of the engine head and the bit where the air filter joins the carb. There is some on the side of the TVP aswell as all over the fuel lines, near the engine. What could have happened? I dont have any spare fuel line, so I cant check that, although I have checked that the head is screwed on firmly and it is not that.

Thanks

i no this sounds silly but a little pinch in the fuel tube can spray fuel everywhere, its happend to me..lol... put the fuel tube in water and blow, look for bubbles, this works for me!!..

u can take out your neddles and put grease on them and put them back in. it will create a kind of seal

will any grease do? I only have some Tamiya stuff I use for the bevel gears. Is anything better/worse that I should look out for?

Thanks
