Hey All.
SO my GF's TW200 seemed to get some fuel in the oil after a bit of time standing (the fuel left on)
My question is: - apart from the carb float not sealing properly - which begs the question about the overflow not working - why doesn't it just pour out the overflow pipe?? Is there any other reason for fuel in the oil. And I mean it was quite a lot of fuel. Fortunately I didn't ride it like that - noticed the oil level was higher than it should be and so I drained it.
Any comments?
I've recently cleaned the carb and the float seal seemed to work fine, but I guess it was a little worn visually.
For now ive just started turning off the fuel and i'll keep a close eye on it, but I'd like to make sure its nothing else
