COMMON COMMON COMMON failure for a brigs carb.
The needles stick, carb floods, crankcase fills with oil.
Drain crankcase.. let it drip dry while fixing the carb.
Carb is SUPER easy to fix.. pull it off, drop the bole, get a can of carb cleaner.. remove float. pull sticky needle out. spray and wipe clean.. use q-tip to clean groove needle rides in, reasemble.. should be good till you let it set again.
I got rid of all of my gas equipment I dind't use at least every 3-4 months.
Small engine carbs can be a pain in the rear... ( 2cycle is usually fine due to the oil.. )
If she's gonna set.. run her near out of gas and then dump in fogging oil heavy into the tank.. run her till she starts smoking good.. shut off. Should be good for a year or two after that.. Drain tank, refill with gas.. prime her and go..
