my motor wouldn't start even though I had spark. I suspected something with the carb - maybe something was clogging the carb. so I completely disassembled and cleaned it, then did my best to put it back together correctly, but I'm not 100% I got everything right cuz now it runs, but it runs kinda weak, and when the petcock is open, it pours gas right out on the ground.
it looks to me like the float bowl valve (terminology?) is stuck open and over filling the bowl with gas till it comes pouring out the vent holes
I've been able to drive by manually opening the petcock about one second for every 5 sec that it's off to control fuel level in the float bowl. obviously that's getting old, so does anybody have any tips or resources to help me get it sorted out and back working again?
