Why is Petrol getting into the oil sump of my countax mower?
My Countax Ride on mower is about 5 years old and petrol has started getting into the oil sump. Is this caused by a problem with the carbarettor sticking open?
Has anyone else had this problem?
How do i solve the problem?
Petrol in the sump means that the float needle valve, in the carburettor, must be sticking open, allowing fuel to run down the inlet tract and into the sump. Taking the carb off for a clean is the way to go here.
