so my vent tube was completely split in two and gas was leaking out of that. There was a piece of the vent tube stuck in the piece that was left on the carb so gas could not just flow out of it, there was just a little hole for the gas to come out of.

the fact that the engine was off and gas was dripping out of the carb vent tube, means something was not sealing in the carb, stopping the gas?

I cant figure out what engine I have. It is probably stamped on the valve cover, but it is rusted over and I cant read it.
Is this a Walbro? I see 4993, LMT and 75 stamped on it.
What needle and seat do I get?

If you have an overhead valve engine, which I think you do, the model type and code will be stamped on the top of the valve cover. It may resemble this....

Arrow shows the location.

I've had luck with a rag soaked in a little gas. Give it a good rubbing. If it's rusty, some gentle pressure with an Emory cloth and gas will sometimes get the numbers to pop.
 
You have the model number in the thread title.........

Ooops my bad, already forgot you have a different engine now :rolleyes:
 
Oh, that was one of Briggs "vintage" series engines , came straight from the factory with antique rust :p
Get some paint on preferably a rag, and wipe it across the rusted area , usually you can get the numbers to hop out at ya.

Since you have a walbro carb ( confirmed by the LMT stamped on it) watch the video I posted and you might can order a kit straight from Walbro
 
If you take some emory cloth and go over it, you should be able to clean it off to read the numbers.
