    Hi of recently bought. A Suzuki Gsx-r. 250 earlier version GJ72A had carb issue when I bought it. The problem is when I start it after a few minutes fuel would leak at rear of carb through vents leading to the emulsion tubes. Floats are set.
    New parts
    Float gaskets, float needles, float seats and other-rings, main jets, or-rings, washers and springs on pilot screws and jet needles.
    Still waiting for the needle jets to arrive from Japan. Any advice please
    Thanks in advance

    You say it's all re built but it's leaking / flooding?
    The description is a bit vague, are the tubes openings in the carb body or hoses.
    Do the floats actually float, try them in a cup of fuel.

    You're not running the fuel tap on the "PRI" setting are you? Is it a vacuum fuel tap? My bandit is (GJ74A)

    Hmm. Are the slides moving freely? If the spring wasn't sitting central in the plunger the needles could be stuck allowing fuel to leak through.

    Slides moving fine spring in centre. What I noticed the emulsion tubes are 2 types 2 with 12 holes and 2 with 6 holes I did not take note where I took each one out. Can you maybe show me in the right direction where the different tubes go

    I'm not sure I'm with you guy's, slides & springs ?
    It'll be the fuel inlet needles sticking or not right to flood like that.
    Did the inlet seats get replaced as well.
    The o ring around the inlet seats can a problem if they are old.
    Nice work Fizz, that answers that.
    Are those openings the fuels leaking from a part of the choke system?
    Nice bike by the way, worth restoring, 45hp, looks like its all there & straight
