howdy folks. I just noticed some slight dripping of gas from my float bowl.  rejetted a while back and am quite confident that my screws are tight. Any thoughts?

Sorry the answer was so short, I was called away just as I was typing. But yes, the bowl gasket, though I have re-used mine several times without a problem can still get worn out.

Also check your float to be sure it is functioning properly, just to be on the safe side while you are inside the carb.

Was it your daughter calling from the theater, wondering where you are?

Very cute.  Wink Grin Wink No it wasn't my daughter. It was my wife needing me to take care of something out in the yard.
