So the carb in the pic was leaking the same as the one that was on it when I got it. New carb same problem. Speaking to my Sister who gave me the kart the tank had always been there for them and they never noticed a leak. I take that with a grain or salt because her kids who were operating it...

I did not do the engine swap, got it like you see it. If there is a better more correct place to have the fuel tank please let me know.
