Husqvarna RZ4623 - Fuel Leak Under Carb

[nevils]

The hose and clamp appear to to be intact.
Where else should I look for the cause of a tiny but dangerous leak in this area, please?
Sorry for all the questions - I'm trying to get this used machine in good shape for the Summer.
Thanks!

Remove the carburettor turn it sideways , hang it on some wire and see where the fuel is coming from
What usually happens is the float needle clags up and does not shut off the fuel with then overfills the carb and leaks out of the air vent for the bowl which is usually between the carb & the manifold
Conversely you can remove the carb & invert it then blow through the fuel inlet you should not be able to blow through the inlet with it upside down
If you have a good pressure adjuster on a compressor, it should hold 7 psi with nothing more than the weight of the float .
Then right side up you should be able to blow through it easily .

Do I need to do this major disassembly or is there a simpler way to disconnect the part I need to check/service? https://poweredoutdoors.com/clean-a-husqvarna-mower-carburetor/
