My motor is leaking gas/oil. It is very thin and seems to be leaking around all 6 cylinders, but I can see it anywhere. I had the whole thing ripped apart, and still can't see where it is coming from....any ideas?<br />I tried pumpin the fuel and oil bulbs, but they get hard, so I didn't feel any relief of pressure.<br />I'm guessing this is past the point of where the gas and oil mix, so whats my next step?

Assuming all the hose connections have been checked, I'd take a lood at the float settings in the carbs. If a float is set too high, excess fuel could spill out of the carbs.<br /><br />If you are unfamiliar with the carbs on your engine, I'd make sure to have a manual handy before disassembling them to check the floats. It isn't difficult, but you really don't want to mess anything up with your carbs.<br /><br />Good luck.
