Fuel is dripping from the air intake silencer at idle but stops after throttled up. Anyone else have this problem and what's the fix.

Clean your carbs, check the float & needle/seat

never run a motor that you know is leaking fuel.
a stray spark will light it up.
you need to pull the cowling and the silencer, inspect carbs and lines while you pump the primer bulb to see where the fuel is coming from
