Where is the gas leaking from?<br />Broken gas line?<br />Fuel pump?<br />Carb?

Re: Motor want start

can you post your model number? Have you tried charging your battery with a charger and then reconnecting to the motor? When you squeeze the primer ball what happens? Will it get stiff or does it stay soft? When you squeeze the primer does it want to stay compressed or does it reinflate?<br />Do you have an inline fuse going to your electronics? Could this be blown
