I have a 1998 25hp tiller style. Took the cover off and when running I see a constant drip of fuel on the left side. It seems to be coming from the carb. area and running down a wire. Not sure what could be causing it.

Re: Fuel leaking inside

I'm having a hard time seeing wher it is coming from, in the end, its running down a wire and pooling on the complete opposite side of the motor as the carb. I can start it up and see if I can better locate the source.

Re: Fuel leaking inside

I'm pretty sure I have figured out where the leak is coming from. When you pull the choke, I know its supposed to squirt fuel into the carb... however, I think the peice is on backwards because I can see the hole, and it simply squirts the fuel into the cowling. Does this make sense? I'm attatching a picture, I hope you can see it.
