I have cleaned the carb, fuel filter, fresh gas, new oil. I have two weeks on the factory warranty and 3 years on the extended Home Depot warranty. Top of gas tank under plastic cover leaks gas ( It is split on top of tank) all over tank at 80% full. Factory Dealer says to put up a $200 deposit and can't look at it for 2 months. Home Depot won't look at it till factory warranty expires in two weeks. Advise?? post edited by GaryPenn - 2023/05/07 10:35:38 Quote #1 1 Reply Related Threads

I suspect the deposite is to cover if they found water/etc (owner induced issue) which wouldn't be covered under warranty. You should get that back if the machine is found to be defective. A cracked fuel tank sounds like a warranty issue itself. I'd rather have the shop check it vs HD myself. Just curious, what engine is on it? Quote #2
