I still laugh every time I think about it. :lol:

I was gonna suggest float needles too. Are you sure it's the gaskets and not the overflow leaking?

OR, a leaky fuel line. We had a member who chased his tail on a leaking carb problem for about a week before he realized that it was actually the fuel line leaking near the carb. I won't mention his name (ken), as he is a moderator and I don't want to tempt him to abuse his power. :mrgreen:
