Carby gas leak at carb.... sometimes

[fetor56]

BTW...don't touch your tickler...use it for cold starts first thing in the morning to get gas into the carby.Its always a good thing to run the engine dry when you've finished with it.Fuel "off"/engine dry.
Newer carbys have better seals around the tickler but by the sounds of it yours isn't a huge leakage problem.

Your kidding right? You posted a new message about a leaking carb and have been leaving the petcock fuel flow on? This thread should be deleted. It adds no value to the forum.

Done it

I was good enough at it with a pretty steep hill I mean its all it can do to make it up it and mine will stall right close to when I want it to after the turn around in my driveway.
