I have a leak of petrol from what appears to be one of the carbs when I start up. I suspect a sticking float chamber. I have tapped the carbs with a screwdriver but is the next stage a stripdown of teh carbs which might be a bit out of my league? I did have a little oil leak out(two tablespoons or so initlally) could this be related? Bike is very low miles and I´m ashamed to say not often used.

I will grateful for your advice.

Kind regards John.
