Hello FESPERMAN,
R U sure it is not the fuel pump gasket?
I will check to see if the O-ring has a part number.

I went back out and looked and cannot see much of a leak.  I cleaned the engine for the first time today.  There was no leaks after running for awhile.  I will see how it runs tommorow.  Maybe it will like being clean and run better.

It is running a little rough.  I still need to change the oil and motor mounts this weekemd.  I am sure that old gas is probably a problem too. I may nbeed a carb rebuild.

Look like it is my fuel pump.  Hopefully just a gasket.

Hello FESPERMAN,
Your leak could be both the dist and the fuel Pump.
Do 1 at a time and keep us posted on what U find.

I cleaned it real well and drove it to work this morning.  I think it is only the fuel pump.  I will go get a seal from Schucks and swap it out.
