&gt;<br>

&gt; Hello list,<br>

&gt;<br>

&gt; Have not received any email from the list for weeks, so I am not sure 
this<br>

&gt; will get anywhere.<br>

&gt;<br>

&gt;<br>

&gt; 1972 Triumph TR6.  Carbs rebuilt quite a while ago by Paltech.<br>

&gt;<br>

&gt;<br>

&gt; Twice this summer, the first after a long drive to a car show, and just<br>

&gt; tonight after being away on vacation for two weeks, I go to check the 
pot<br>

&gt; oil and the pot oil in the carb towards the front of the car is empty.  
Dry,<br>

&gt; zilch.  Fill it up, drive no issues.  In the previous incident, I drove 
for<br>

&gt; over two months of the summer and it never happened.<br>

&gt;<br>

&gt;<br>

&gt; Anyone have any insight into what is causing this?  You see no pot oil 
under<br>

&gt; the carb so its not leaking.  My thought is that some rubber gasket in 
that<br>

&gt; carb has reached its useful life.  Thanks in advance.<br>
