Yamaha 80 - Fuel l3eaks from autochoke area ..running and on bulb squeeze

[ChrisHarding]

Hi Guys
Recently obtained 4 stroke 80 ..when you squeeze the fuel line bulb fuel runs from or near the top autochoke ..also does the same when trying to start .. Obviously the motor won't start but tries .. Any ideas??

What is the complete model of the motor? Should be an F80 something?

I think it is an F80 4 stroke but not to worry ..we found the issue ..a wasp built a nest somehow in the float chamber before we purchased it so the float could never close the needle and seat .. All good now thanks!!
