| When I take off the petrol tank and remove the hose from the quick release coupling, petrol keeps on running out of the coupling. I had a couple of beers yesterday, but can't remember that this ever happened on any of my other bikes. "Left-overs" from the tube yes, but not from the coupling?! Any suggestions to what's wrong, - me or the pump assembly? ![Shocked](https://2img.net/i/fa/i/smiles/icon_eek.gif) | |

| did you unplug the fuel pump while the engine was running? this will get the residual fuel out of the lines and depressurize them | |

Yes and no. I first unplug the pump, then start it. It's easier, I find. However, I didn't let the engine run until it stopped by it self, maybe that's why... ![Embarassed](https://2img.net/i/fa/i/smiles/icon_redface.gif) | |
