I have been working on this Evinrude the past 2 months,simple things such as rebuilt everything under the flywheel on up,carb...etc...water pump oh yea....first time in the test tank I pumped up the gas tank gave her a little choke and ...BAM.....first pull she fires right up and purr's like you love to hear!...but we got a problem with a gas leak and it's coming from what appears to be a very tiny crack in the reed plate just behind the intake on the left side looking at the carb....not in a bolt hole area between the front and rear gasket's. Any one have a clue what to do? I have not pulled the carb and intake maniflod YET....got to think about this and need advice please.Otherwise she's a beautiful old motor!
