    Gas Leak

    Looks like I have gas leaking from the float bowl drain plug on at least one carb on my '78 GS750. Are the O-rings for the drain plugs available as a separate part?

    I think it just a flat fiber gasket, not an o-ring?

        I have a gas leak last night and my detector went off, it did'nt alert me. I call to the company and they said that this is minor leakage of the gas and the detector battery is low.

          Where was your gas leaking from?

            Probably his home gas furnace! When it comes to gas in a home (or any confined space) there's no such thing as "minor leak".
