Default Help. OEM CV carb leak, 1991 xlh

I'm figuring it's about time to rebuild my carb. There is a leak coming from the inside of the accelerator pump rod and small rubber boot when I twist the throttle. Can someone tell me what I need to replace/fix? Is there a quick fix to this.

Thanks for the support.

Kelton

Easy fix, but buy a rebuild kit and have at it. Not difficult, but be careful not to damage the diaphragm.

I just ordered a kit. Does this have the part I need. It's the "Deluxe Rebuild Kit" left column.

Nope, that is a Stage 1 upgrade kit, designed to improve performance of the carb. It doesn't look like it includes the regular rebuild kit stuff. You need a regular rebuild kit that will include the various gaskets, o-rings, float valve, etc. Here's a kit from Dennis Kirk, though any local HD shop should carry it, too.
