Turns out there's a problem with the free Stanley CH5 wood chipper I picked up the other weekend beyond flat tires. Started using it for about 5 minutes, strong odor of gas. Just pissing out the bottom of the tank. Jerry rig fuel collection device while I grab some sockets and wrenches. 13 and 10mm do the trick. Pull it off and the hose to the carb is jelly. Drain, assess, realize it's Sunday afternoon anyway. Hopefully a local small engine place has something similar I can attach, else I'm gonna have to do some redneck engineering.
