Howdy, Hawg.<br /><br />You probably have a stuck float or needle in the carb. Overhaul it.<br /><br />Good luck.

The #1 reason for that stuck and leaking needle and seat is water contaminated fuel.Go through the carb but do'nt go pluggig that fuel line back on until you know what you are feeding this engine is clean.You'll see when you get in there.
