Well today it appears that i solved one issue only to find i had another.
I have fuel appearing on top of my rear float chamber, i have replaced the hose and clips numerous times, fine when its running with no sign of a leak but as soon as i shut off, after about 5 mins a small amount of fuel starts appearing on top of the float chamber very difficult to see where its coming from but i do not think it is out of the hose.
Any suggestions please.

Re: fuel issue
Out of the overflow, as the fuel starts to heatsoak, and boil

Re: fuel issue
Ok there was no obvious overflow on the rear pot, only the front one, but i found a small hole hidden behind a brass clip that is the likely culprit, not had a chance to open it up yet but guessing it's a float issue.
