Re: Relay and other woes

If the air box was wet with gas you can do a drain. There is a hose from the bottom of the air box that hangs down through the frame and is meant for that purpose. You will find a plug in the hose. It will have crap and gas in it. Drain hose, replace plug and be happy. Do it with every oil change even if there are no problems.

But when I get home tonight ill see if the leaking has stopped and this was just a flooding situation due to the float getting stuck.

WaterW my turn signals were not working and yes I cleaned the contacts in the switch after which the right one worked intermittently

Check the bulbs and sockets for corrosion. Check for poor grounds too.

Re: Relay and flooding

Turns out the rubber gasket on brass seat was dry rotted and allowing gas to go around it , which was causing the flooding and non running . Relay is int he mail i"ll tell you guys how that works out. - Julius
