Hey all. I THINK I have a carbuerator problem. At least, it looks like the carb is involved in some way. Here's whats happening:
After a period of usage, I'd say about 6 or 7 miles, the motor starts to smoke. Turns out the "smoke" is something dripping onto the intake manifold, and everywhere else, underneath the carb. When it burns, it smells like oil, but I didn't think oil went to the carb? Whatever this "substance" is, its leaking underneath the throttle body, and has everything underneath covered in the stuff. Especially this one hose coming from underneath the throttle body. Any help guys? Whats goin on? The Chero runs fine, but its just burnin whatever, on the intake manifold, and any hot parts surronding it. My father and my hypothesis is that the manifold is getting too hot for some reason. But that still doesn't explain why something is dripping. TIA!!
