People s200 / Re: Gas leaking from air cleaner housing

Thanks for the advice racewalker...do you know if gum out or another carb cleaner can be run through the gasoline or must a carb cleaner be poured directly into the carb?

People s200 / Gas leaking from air cleaner housing
« on: September 08, 2012, 06:53:13 PM »
My People S200 has twice now leaked about a cup of gasoline from the air cleaner housing.  These have been isolated events about 2 months apart.  Both times I could start it but the engine seemed flooded and after the engine ran about 30 seconds it ran fine and there was no further gasoline leak.  This second time occurred yesterday and I was able to take the air cleaner housing off while gas was still leaking.  The gas was dripping out of the 1.5 inch diameter tubing the runs from the air cleaner into the engine.  The leaking occurred after the engine had completely cooled.  The scooter has 11,000 miles on it and has been carefully maintained and there hasn't been any other problem.  Any suggestions about what the cause might be and how to fix it would be greatly appreciated.
