Fuel leak Honda 5hp

[aroussakov]

I have Honda 5 hp motor and the fuel ls leaking when the motor is running from the top of carburrator ( from the openning at the middle of the picture at the attachement) Looks like something is missing there. Any idea?

Fix your carburetor. It's flooding.

Thanks, yah, the carburrator needs a clean, I am going to take it a part and see what's happen

Im having exactly the same problem as above. I have cleaned the carb out and fuel is still coming out :-( Any advice would be grateful

You need to start a new thread, instead of reviving a thread that's very old. But if the carb is overflowing, the needle valve is not seating correctly.

I have found the screw on top of the carb that alters the richness. tweaked it a little and it seems to have worked for now
