Carb rebuild kit/brake m/c return

Post by Franco »

I discovered that the carb is leaking (from the float bowl, I think!
Are there any carb rebuild kits availible or do I need to make my own
gaskets?
Also, I think I remember seeing some info on the master cylinder that
fixes a problem on brakes that don't return. Can someone tell me
where that info might exist. The brakes hang up after pressure is
applied, and then slowly release.
Thanks

If your having a problem with the wheels locking up when the brakes are
applied and let go after a while, check the compensating port (hole) on the
master cylinder. It's most likely plugged.

Can anyone tell me where the compensating port is located on the
master cylinder? I do not see it called out in either the workshop
manual or the parts manual.
Thanks

With the reservoir empty you will see two holes, one is very small -
it's that one.
