not sure where its leaking from, but now I have bigger problems, won't run at all now, I got it cranked, and as soon as I touch the gas it dies out and then won't start again for 2-3 days. oh well, knew I would have to look for another engine soon.

if it leaking coolant by the carburator, there are 2 orings on the intake gasket that need to be replaced. what happens is that the coolant leaks out and destroys the paper intake gasket, maybe enough to burn coolant at high rpm
