Don't see gas leaking but there does look to be some build up around the gaskets so it may be slowly seeping out over time. It does sound good when it starts up so I think it's just not getting fuel. I've never done anything with carbs other than adjusting the idle and mixture screws so I'll have to look into how to mess with that needle that's possibly stuck.

Thanks for your response.
