Fuel Leaking!

Fuel is leaking from my bike whenever the fuel petcock is open...It started coming out the plastic line connected to the bottom of the float bowl and when it really started pissing out, it was coming from two different plastic lines (can't remember where the other was connected...too angry by this time)...after it got really bad, the bike wouldn't start...any ideas on what the heck is going on with my carb??? My bike is a 99 RM125

Sounds like your float is stuck. Most likely there is a little dirt in the bowl. Take the bowl off and clean and check for anything that might keep it from moving.

My son has a KTM 125 with a 38 mikuni on it. Every once in a while he'll get, "carb craps" where fuel runs out the tube. It always ends up being one of the floats are a tab higher than the other.
Make sure you check the float height when you got it apart, and do your self a favor, record the height, jet sizes!
