Why does my Troy Bilt Rototiller leak gas?
I have a Troy-Bilt rototiller that I put back into service recently (piston was rusted in place; exhaust valve was rusted shut; etc.), but I still have one major issue with it, and that is that the float carburetor constantly leaks gas out of the air intake (when it is on or off).
What causes fuel to flow into the float bowl?
The float needle valve is responsible for regulating the flow of fuel into the float bowl. When the tip of the valve becomes worn or debris prevents the closing of the valve, fuel flows continuously into the bowl thus flooding the engine.
