Got up this AM to bike to work- turn on gas valve, gas starts urinating out of carburator. This is a Chinese 49cc two-stroke with stock carb. Take car to work. When I get back, I pull float chamber apart and find float 2/3 full of fuel mix. Bummer. Then I remember a tube of SEAL-ALL I found as I am packing to move. Their website claims it can be used to repair carb floats. I drill two small holes to draing the float, glue up said holes as well as the joint seams where the two pieces of plastic are joined. Tommorrow I will wet-sand the surfaces and re-install this thing- will report in a week's time if it works. Should it give out, I will report that as well however far down the line that occurs. We shall see-
