Don: The last work on my engine was to integrate the in-line fuel filter and replace gaskets in the carburator and flange connection to the engine. While I had the carb apart, I checked the float assembly, cleaned it and all looked well (having recalled your thought that the float valve may be allowing fuel to leak through to the return line at the bottom of the carburator). After completing all and reassembling, I still have a small drip leak. I did notice one strange thing when I put the in-line filter on. When I replaced the fitting on the fuel pump, the unit was gurgling fuel out of the hole from gravity. Is there a flow preventer seal in the pump that may be blown?
For obvious safety reasons, I have to resolve this issue. Is it time to replace the pump and/or the carburator or are there some less drastic possible solutions?
