« on: December 30, 2012, 11:05:17 AM »
 Hi
 I have been battling with a 340 Invader for 2 years.

 The ptoblem with it right now id the needles keep sticking in the seats not letting any fuel into the carbs.

 Anyone have a solution to this?

 Thanks

 make sure you get the Mikuni needle and seat, without the rubber tips. The rubber does not work well with gasoline that has ethanol in it.

You can also try to "polish" the seat with a cotton swab it can help sometimes

 Thanks

 Trucker I did that and didn't seem to help.

 I guess I'll order some new needle and seats
