    Hi,
    There are a number of places that it could come from. The most common would be the float/inlet needle do not shut off fuel flow correctly and the observed drip is just from th lowest point. Others would be a bad gasket or a pinhole in the bottom of the float bowl (caused by a piece of rusty steel touching it.) You will need to perform some inspection to ascertain the exact source.
    Some manuals are available online; what brand of engine?
    Peace,
    Clarke

    357 cc troy built engine. I have the same problem on my snow blower. I have been trying to find some kind of manual that breaks it down but so far no luck.
