Final update on this thread and a BIG THANK YOU to all who have posted suggestions to get this Elite SB50 going.
HEY NOOB (the original poster of this thread), don't give up! Don't give up! Don't give up!
Today I tore apart the entire fuel system for the 6th. time to clean it out, (everything from the Fuel Tank through the carb), and the result? No more fuel leaks, runs quieter, idles purrrrrfect, and hits the max on the speedometer at 35 MPH!!!!!!!!!!!

:coolcruise: DON'T GIVE UP! :coolcruise:
