Hi Everyone,
Finally launched this morning and knew something wasn't right when I saw fuel on the water. Took the cover off the port eng and found fuel pouring from a hole at the bottom of the middle carb bowl. We noticed there was some type of ball the size of a BB in the other carbs held in by some type of O-ring. I've attached pics for you to see and I don't know what this is for.
We tapped the hole and placed a screw in it and stopped the leak. Runs fine.
Any info on this would be great because the others are not looking good and may fail soon.

Thanks,
Brutus.
