Briggs and stratton fuel pump leak
I was given an older Troybilt lawn tractor which has an 18 HP B&S engine. When I got it home, I jump started the engine and noticed a fuel leak around the carb. I secured the hose that feeds the fuel pump and it seemed to fix it. I used the mower for about an hour and then parked it. Later I tried to restart the engine and noticed major amounts of gas coming out of the front hole of the fuel pump cover. Anyone know what the problem might be? B&S 18 hp. Mod #42A707 type: 2238 E1
