I rebuilt the carb on my farmall H a few months ago. I haven't run it in a couple of months. I did not shut off the fuel. There are no carb leaks except the felt weep hole ( on the bottom of the carb) always has a drop on it. There is no puddle or drops on the concrete floor. I took off the rubber air cleaner hose and stuck my finger on top of where the weep hole is and it always is dry. Ant thoughts? Thanks!!

John, I think that unless you shut off the gas and run all the gas out of the carb you will always have a spot of gas there. Since that is an up-draft carb any fuel left in the manifold after you shut off the engine will condense and collect at the weep hole. I only shut off the gas on my show tractors and run the gas out of the carb to keep the paint nice. On working tractors I never shut off the gas and have never had any leaks other than a little drip at the weep hole. If you have leaks you have a bad float/needle valve. Roger

Because the "H" is gravity flow...ALWAYS SHUT-OFF the gas at the tank !!Saves a lot of gas as well as reducing a fire hazard !! Good luck !! Jim
