Carb leak Hawk250
I am having a fuel leak at the brass pin closet to the top of the carb in the attached picture...
Can anyone tell me what that pin is called and what would cause a fuel leak there? When I turn on the fuel from the petcock - it streams out like a waterfall. |

That pin is just a guide for the inner round throttle plunger - shouldn't be able to get fuel coming from there at all.

its the overflow. you can see the cast tube running up to it. your float is stuck open for some reason.

I can’t work out why he claims it’s coming from the guide pin cause no way you could get fuel there up that high |

The hose on the bottom is for the bowl drain, not overflow.
