pulled the trike out to swill the engine out while the rear core plug is out, lots of white crystal stuff and a little brownish water came out. had it running while hose pipe shoved in top of rad. went to put the core plug in and it allmost fell in, had a look today and waters freely dripping out. any ideas, do you hammer the core plug in the center of the dome to expand it,? last time i did one was a beagle ha van.

Thats there to suck blowby gases out of the sump on a mini - not sure if this carb is original reliant or not? Connect it to the rocker cover and fit a breather type filler.

it is a original reliant, [i think] . will connect it up. theres a screw missing from the top of float bowl which may make it not seal fifer. does the carb rely on pressure from the rocker to run right.?

i used to blank the breather pipe that comes out the side of the carb and went to the rocker cover then let the rocker cover breath to the atmospere via a short downward pionting tube

When you clouted the convex centre of the core plug to fit it is the core plug centre now concave ? There is an optimum point where the outside of the core plug has spread to the maximum . After that point the centre becomes concave and starts to pull the outside in again therefore it does not seal . Fortunately I have never had a cylinder head worn so bad that I have had to use a sealant but lots of owners of various makes of vehicles have used it with success . . .
