So, my honda seems to be leaking gas down ito the oil causing oue basement flore to becong covered in the stuff. What can I do to fix this?

My dad thinks its the carb, took the bowl off to see if there was any gunk in there, there wasnt.

This is typically caused by a stuck needle in your carb, you most likely need to rebuild your carb if it sat up for any period of time. Something is gummed up, I also suggest changing your oil several times before running the engine for an extended period of time. Finally the best way to prevent this from happening is using the fuel shut off valve that is on your engine.

Yeah, it has been sitting outside for a year or so. Now hopefully I can find some spare time to do that.

Thank you very much.
