Let me guess. It's a real old float. I just had two of those problems....on tractor and on welder. On each, I found a really small dent and a hairline, almost invisible crack. Dry off the outside and tip it over, gas has really small molecules and they "wet" the area of the crack. I took my compressor and blew air "past" the crack. That "vacuumed" out the fuel and then I just soldered it up. No problems...shine it up, flux it and drop a bit of solder. I used a soldering gun. The "vacuum" action of the fast moving compressed air worked really well...you could see a spray of fuel coming out of the crack until it was all gone. I think that age, vibration causes the crack. I replaced on with new and the other is still in the machine. I'll probably replace it. The soldering is probably a temporary fix.
