[QUOTE="duanes7, post: 13969, member: 339"] Have a 76 gl1000 that I just barely put back on the road. I noticed evidence of fuel leakage from the fuel pump (streaks of brownish gold). Bike sat for 3 weeks before I could get a brand new eom pump. Put the new one on it yesterday and noticed tank was empty (I know, shut off the petcock... will do from now on). I was installing my new oil filter bolt (old one is stripped) today and the drained oil smells heavily of gas. Will the fuel pump leaking empty gas into the crank? Thought the leak was just external, but seems possible that the fuel could be leaking into the engine. The pump is directly above the cam and head after all. Anything else that I should check or keep an eye on? I just rebuilt the carbs and am reasonably sure they are ok. Read some posts that said the carbs could leak into the crank. Would a float not shutting off do this? Seems it would most likely leak though the cylinder and into the exhaust pipe (path of least resistence). [/QUOTE]
