My boat got swamped and completely covered with water during a storm while beached. Got all the water out then drained the gas tank. Took out the brass screws at the bottom of each carb as told and shot a bunch of carb cleaner in each one until it poured out. Pumped the ball so gas would flow through the openings the let it set and shot more carb cleaner in the openings. Replaced the brass screws and put it in the water to test it out. It started right up, idled and when in neutral will rev up. The problem is gas comes out of a hole to the left of the brass screw with a spring at the top of the top carb. I'm not a mechanic and I'm handicapped so it's my only enjoyment. Any help or suggestions would be sincerely appreciated since I'm on a limited budget. I'm trying to add a pic of where the gas is leaking. Thanks in advance!!
