Generator and carb question
I have a Generac 8000 generator. Made sure it would start today. Luckily, it does.

It drips gas-
when the valve is turned on
when the generator is running or off.
Drips more when the generator is off.

It does not drip when-
the valve is shut off


Is there a float in the carb that is stuck open? Is that even a thing?
Been a long time since I did of any of that .

It ran for about 20 minutes tonight with seafoam in it

What can I do to get it to stop dripping? beyond the obligatory

That's ethanol. Quit using that shit in it

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.

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.
