Fuel Tank overflow

#1 Post by zoidberg » Mon Sep 15, 2014 8:26 am

Mine is blocked and I've tried blowing and vacuuming out even theaeing a wire down it to no avail.

Anyone got any recommendations for cleaning this out?

I did this not long ago, I started with a bit of mig welding wire, firm enough to push through bits of crap but flexi enough to go round the bends.
I followed this with a bit of wire stripped from 30amp cooker wire, solid copper strand with insulation approx 3 to 4mm o/d, again fim but flexible.
It was the water run off I did but the sizes are the same

I think it's the same one. After I wash the bike and fill up I get a bit of water in my fuel tank :smt011
