I'm in the midst of doing a little maintenance on my '96 XL1200C trying to remedy an overflowing carb (original OEM Keihin CV carb). I've dropped out the float, which isn't defective, and need to remove the fuel inlet valve so I can check it out. I'm looking at it and can't figure out how it should come out. Does it screw out, or is it just pressed in the brass boss?
FWIW, I figure I'll probably need to replace the valve. I understand there's a rubber coating that wears off over time. I figure after 13 years it's probably toast. Figure I'll replace the fuel line, vacuum line & fuel inlet fitting while I'm at it.
Thanks in advance!
