- Check the fuel lines: Look for any cracks, holes, or other damage to the fuel lines. Replace any damaged lines immediately.
- Inspect the fuel filter: The fuel filter may be clogged or dirty, preventing proper fuel flow. Clean or replace the fuel filter if necessary.
- Tighten the fuel cap: A loose or damaged fuel cap can cause fuel to leak out. Make sure the fuel cap is tightened securely.
- Check the carburetor: The carburetor may be dirty or damaged, causing fuel to leak out. Clean or rebuild the carburetor if necessary.
- Replace the fuel tank: If the fuel tank itself is damaged, it may be leaking fuel. Replace the fuel tank if necessary.
