When you figure it out I'd really like to know how it is happening, because gas running from the gas tank into the crankcase is physically impossible without you noticing something REAL BAD.

The carburetor on this tractor is BELOW the manifold, and is not connected to the engine in any other way. For gas to be running straight from the tank into the engine:

1. The carburetor drain would have to be plugged.

2. The manifold would have to be completely flilled with gasoline.

If the manifold is full of gasoline, the tractor will flood and not start. It may even hydrolock when it sucks in that huge slug of gas. Best case scenario is you take a gasoline bath when the tractor starts as it spits that huge slug of gas out the muffler!

This is something that wouldn't go unnoticed.
