I Have a 1988 suzuki 6 hp (DT6) It starts and runs O.K. but the primer bulb does not get real hard and a steady stream of gas comes out what apears to be a vent hole at the top left of the carburator. The motor has just been started after several years of storage.There is only about 10 hours on this motor since new. Any help with this would be apreciated.
thank you

Re: Carb leaks

clean out those carbs and bowls.
most likely a stuck float or gummed up needle in the float bowl.
