I basically need a new float needle and seating thing for the tzr carb, as it seems to piss fuel all over the road for no apparent reason.

Any ideas apart from ebay + cheshire motorcycle salvage?

I'd have thought your friendly local Yam dealer would stock consumables like that, they're usually shown on the parts fiches.

Ah i think I may have fixed it now anyway, bending the tang (?) a little so the float needle closes slightly earlier than before.

Cheers though.

It's usually a pretty tight tolerance for the float height adjustment, something like + or - 1mm.

I only changed it by about 1mm i think.

It is quite stiff and quite hard to bend anyway.
