Hi there everyone.

I have a problem with the carb on my dtr 125. When the full tap is turned on or on reserve petrol just fills the carb and starts pouring out the overflow. I have tryed taking it apart and cleaning it to make sure theres no dirt in it but its still the same. Really hope someone can help me. Thanks

Float or needle, have you cleaned the seating with a cotton wool bud and inspected the needle with a magnifying glass?
