[QUOTE="BJ1, post: 255430, member: 355"] If the fuel is really leaking out of the manifold then it's likely that the needle valve on the carb is stuck open allowing fuel to drip down the intake. So take the top off the carb (six screws) and check the fuel level in the float chamber. My guess is that it will be brim full. If so then just renew the needle valve. This happens a lot when buses are laid up for a while with a lot of fuel in the tank. Brian [/QUOTE]
