Friends,

I discovered some gas intermittently dripping out of air box throat. Any ideas what could cause this? Fuel is off and stored that way. Maybe stuck float in carb? No evidence of gas outside carb or elsewhere. Was running great last I flew it.

I know if it is flooded, this will happen. Thing is, this happened sitting in hangar. Primer is in and locked, throttle idle. Please let me know your experiences.

Thanks!
