hi,

i have a 14 12 Dellorto Carb, when i moved things around at the petcock and the fuel line to drain the gas tank, i noticed after that i had a fuel leak, i narrowed it down to either the fuel line doesn’t have a proper seal on the nipple of the banjo or the seal of the banjo against the fuel filter and carb does not have a proper seal. one thing i also noticed the little washer called the “banjo bolt” is missing could this contribute to a poor seal that would make it leak?( previously to my tinkering there was no bolt either and no leak)

if its the banjo bolt can i use any washer or do i have to buy genuine,if its the fuel line do i just get some more hose?

thank you
