Hi. I have a 5hp Honda with gas coming out of a small port on the top/right side every time it starts. The engine keeps running and the gas keeps flowing out. I think it is a stuck carb float. Is this a easy fix????? Any ideas??

Thank you, Henry:(
 
Try tapping on the carburetor body to see if it will unstick.---------------Try disconnecting fuel and running the fuel out of carburetor.---------Then hook up the fuel again and try it.--------------5 Hp Honda carburetor is simple to repair, likely no need to adjust anything as cleaning may solve the problem.---Always run fuel out of the carburetor if motor is going to sit for a long period of time.
