Best Answer

Look for a crack on the fuel tank. If the system is garvity-fed (fuel tank is not attached to the carburetor and is above the carburetor level) look for cracks in the fule hose. Another likely possibility in a gravity-fed system is the fuel float stuck in the open postion, thus not stopping the fuel flow through the carburetor when the engine is off.
