    Hey guys,

    Just thought I'd share this with you. Bought an MC22 for 500 bucks a little while ago. Runs well but is a bit of a fire hazard due to a good fuel leak. So anyways, off with the fuel tank disconnect a few things here and there, off with the carby's for a dis-assemble/inspect/clean. While removing the fuel bowls I find....

    No 1 carb...

    No 3 Carb...

    Might cause a leak me thinks... Everything inside the carbs looks, well, new in fact. The vacuum diaphragms are mint, the float needles are unmarked. But I gotta say, really not a fan of permatex (av-gasket) being used on static o-ring seals...
