Hello everyone,
I have a Briggs and Stratton 155 Series 4 that I took out for the spring. It’s about 5 or 6 years old. I have cut a 2 acre lawn 3 times with it this year. I cut the lawn yesterday and stopped the mower. It was working fine.
When I came back from lunch, I smelled fuel. Fortunately, I didn’t start the engine. It was parked level and when I checked, there was fuel running off the riding mower deck and fuel in the oil. I have added a photo. As you can see, the carb is really wet with fuel and it was dripping pretty good from the mower deck.
I am guessing this is some type of carburetor issue?![IMG_3763.jpeg IMG_3763.jpeg](https://www.lawnmowerforum.com/data/attachments/53/53601-b55d36e354213ecd556a76bb0c95de2b.jpg)
