I checked the new carburetor for leaks and when I found none, I ordered and installed a new fuel pump on the hopes that was the issue. After installation, I started the engine, and it ran for about 30 seconds and shut off. I opened the air cleaner and, again, there was the presence of gas. And I was back to gas in the exhaust. And a new issue, gas in the oil. So, it appears I perhaps bought a new carburetor, fuel pump, hoses and gaskets for naught but it did add new equipment to a 16-year-old machine.
I need to research why there is gas in the air cleaner, exhaust and now in the oil. Thanks for your suggestions. I do appreciate your time and consideration.
