Ha Guys

I just totally pulled down, cleaned the carbs on my 82 special BS34s
Then replaced all components but when I fitted the carbs I now have fuel pissing out from where the tee fuel line goes into each carby BUGGER
Is it that I may not have pushed them in far enough but then the angle bar that bolts them both together shorly makes shore that the two are parallel & therefore the tee must be in far enough?
I will be pulling them apart tomorrow is there any tricks I missed in stopping fuel leaks from here or is there something I can seal this area with at the same time as reinserting the tee.

Any help or advice greatly appreciated.

It's been a while since I had the t out but I think they have o rings on them. Maybe one rolled out of place.

I dont recall O rings in there

Also setting plastic float height when carbys are of, do you set the height of floats by just letting the floats sit on the needle or do you push the float down so as the little pin on the needle is all the way in

Just let the floats rest on the needles.
