Hi,Im 58 and have rebuilt many carbs in my life but theres something that i cant figure out and maybe you can help.I have a 1960s model eska 7.5 hp motor and it leaks gas from a port on the side of the carburator.I replaced the needle,seat,float and gaskets but when i turn the gas on it still leaks.When i take it off and gently hold the float up it seals great(i cant blow through it).This motor has an on-board tank and i found a crack in the primer bulb,would the lack of pressure in it tank cause the needle not to seal.If any of you have ideals let me know.Flat bottm boy
