    Carb over haul

    Hi all

    Could anyone tell me a place where I could send my carb off to for an over haul please?
    It's leaking fuel so I think a seal has gone so it could do with being looked at, I've seen the group a ones on gttuning and ktec but I can't afford £100 and don't really need a fancy one at this point anyway.
    I've seen that the kits are about £25 but I don't fancy taking it apart myself if it's going to be too difficult for me to put back together, as I've not done anything like that before.

    Cheers

    Jay

    Thanks for the help guys.
    Managed to change most of the seals, apart from a few tiny black ones and the two green ones, i didn't come across any green ones while i was taking it apart.
    Ive put it back on and it no longer leaks fuel and is starting and running ok, its a little lumpy and is a bugger until its warm but other than that it seems to be ok as far as i can tell anyway lol
