Hi people!
First time on the forum. After owning and working on a CM400T for the last years im now working on a 1982 CB750f project (EU).
While in the process of doing general inspection and maintenance using the FSM I cleaned out the bottom end of the carbs using carb cleaner and put in some new gaskets.
After installing the carbs on the bike and turning on the petcock fuel started spewing out of the following spot at Carb 2:
Was not able to find a similar issue on the forum but before disassembling again and possibly messing up more, I could very much use your opinions/advice since it is not obvious to me how the leak could have started and how to fix it.
This was not leaking before.
Thanks in advance!
EDIT: After pondering it some more, just realised that i've had to put a lot of pressure and pulling on the carbs to fit them back into the intakes, especially the sides, could this have caused this leak? Is there some kind of oring inside at the connection point of the fuel rail that can be leaking now?
