Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): gas leak, 50cc engine, gas leak


Question
i have a 50cc engine and the gas is leaking out of the air intake on the carb. also the engine is now flooded and impossible to start any suggestions what the problem is? i thought it could be the float but i have literally just put a whole new carb, float housing and float included, into the engine so i do not know

Answer
Did you flush the fuel tank and lines?
It is most likely that the problem started from trash in the fuel system and therefor
hanging the inlet seat in the carb open.
If you did not flush the tank and lines, you will need to and also flush the carb back out again.
This should take care of our issue.
