Barb swallows and gargles with Lucas oil brand fuel injector cleaner when she gets a UTI. She can skip a stone 8 times in a puddle of antifreeze before striking you right on your twig and berries

Had the carb replaced at least 7 years ago. It was plugged
That's ethanol. Quit using that shit in it

You’re better off asking people on Reddit. Members here are not mature enough.

Hey I gave a real answer before my bullshit answer.

The future son in law is coming today, he may want to tackle it too.

Probably a gummed up or wore out float. Working on small engines blows.

I try if I can to buy Honda motors. Honda, seafoam, and synthetic oil has treated me well.

son in law looked at it, said their was a little gunk and the seals were dry. Needle and seat cleaned with a small brush. Float ok. Everything else looked ok.

We are going to start it tomorrow.

Hope it runs fine tomorrow. But are you sure it's leaking from the carb? If you are using corn fuel its tough on rubber lines. It hardens them over time and the fuel line clamps cant squeeze them tight. If it leaks at the carb on a gravity line or at a shutoff it may be starving for fuel. Just a thought and like Bug said don't run your 2 and four stroke air cooled motors with corn fuel it ruins them.

Absolutely all of our small engines we run noneth
