Started the Power Wagon up and ran it for a while and noticed a fuel leak under the truck later? Found the leak, since I have a back up electric fuel pump and had run the truck out of fuel I used it to prime the carb. Started the truck and ran it with it still on. I did notice, now that I think about it the sound did not change to shutting off after a while? Well the problem was the bowl was loose and with the electric fuel pump added pressure. Gas started spraying out around the gasket. It was not loose when I put the glass bowl on so over the last year it must have sunk into the gasket and got loose enough to leak. It might be a good idea to check those new bowls a few times just to make sure there not getting loose from engine vibration or age.
