Craftsman Garden Tractor Leaking Fuel
I bought an old model Craftsman Honda type lawn tractor. It ran great when I bought it. Towed it home and boyfriend decided to "fix it up". He replaced worn wires and battery and for some reason I don't understand, the fuel pump. He bought a generic fuel pump at Autozone. Ever since it has spewed gas out the front of the motor, just below the air filter... is hard to start and to keep running. It dies with the least resistance, i.e. pushing manure across the paddock, and smokes like a chimney. I can't afford $100 to have small engine mechanic look at it. Any help would be appreciated.
