If it's just a very very small seep (a drop or two an hour), sometimes you can just open it up and quit using it (leave it on), and it will quit over time. Basically is what it'll do, is tar up and seal where it was leaking. Not the RIGHT way to fix it. But considering that you just recently started shutting it off/having the problem, it was probably like this before, and you busted loose the tar and gunk that prevented it from leaking before, when you started using it. Of course, if it's leaking worse than this (several drops a minute, or a stream), this will not work. It's simply leaking to much gas for evaporation to do any good.
I usually dis-able a tractor in some other way (other than shutting gas off), if I'm worried about theft of the machine.
