    Probably too expensive, posted here to find a cheaper fix, I can rather leave it in the garage, but thanks for your help.

    Tohatsu on fire!!

    I've always done it this way in the last 30 years, but do you have any suggestions on what I can try next to fix the problem?

    The water was a little above the metal plate in the picture, and the water intake is the filter looking thing under the plate.

    Tohatsu on fire!!

    That test bucket is the same I've been using for the last 30 years, and is it normal for a motor to take fire when its on its lowest-- I'm not sure I want to start the motor again in case it explodes.

    Tohatsu on fire!!

    couldn't find a wire that was causing any spark, do you have any idea where that could be, the motor has manual start so the only eletrical things in the motor is where you hook up a light. Could the fuel leakage be a gasket in the carb that was broken under cleaning?

    My tohatsu m18c2 had a carb problem with the engine not being able to idle while choke is pushed in or else it would die, I recently cleaned the carb with a carb cleaner spray, and after putting the carb back I waited for 2 hours for the carb to dry and then started it up and it caught on fire...
