PZ30 Carb help

smons1 · 03-23-2021, 11:58 PM

Carb is leaking fuel out of the port directly above the choke bracket screw when the fuel valve is open. I'm looking for the part that goes there. please help.

you could always get a new carb since they are rather cheap. Getting a new carb might be better/easier than trying to buy that little piece thats missing!

That port is a overflow port for the bowl. If it's leaking fuel then the float is either stuck or needs adjustment.

Thats what I typed at first Jerry because my float was recently stuck! But from his picture..the tube is completely missing! Copper tube is GONE

Not all carbs have the brass tube.

Thanks, that's what I was thinking but if I could fix it in the meantime I'd like to keep it as a backup so I wouldn't have to wait in the future. Any suggestions on good sites for parts? (Xmoto hx250)

The other guys could be right as well! Like I was saying my float was stuck not too long ago and gas was just leaking right out right when I put the valve on. If your carb is one of the carbs without the tube like Jerry mentioned then maybe its just your float. If your tube is somehow missing just get new carb. PZ 30 carbs on amazon should more than do the trick. I dont have much info on xmotos but amazon and eBay you can get carbs for all these bikes.

If you are looking for a new carb just search PZ30 carb on Amazon or Ebay. Pick one with a good review and buy it. They are all about the same.

Mikuni clone carbs are around $24 on EBay. You’ll need jets for them. I purchased two.
