Exclamation 97 zrt fuel leak
I started my 97 zrt600 for the 1st time in several months about 2 weeks ago...it seemed to be running fine, but the breather hose on one of my carbs was leaking fuel(virtually a steady stream). i haven't had a chance to work on it any since then, but i would like to get into it this weekend and i was wondering if anyone had any ideas for me?
