We've been using one of our "working Cubs" quite a bit around here lately--towing a small wagon or the log splitter. After shutting it down for awhile this afternoon to do some more log cutting, I went over to crank it up but it was dripping gas out of the carb. I figure it must be the needle has some trash or something on it so I shut the gas valve and remove the intake hose. Naturally, gas poured out of the carb. I tried to turn the engine over with no ignition and the engine stopped cold while cranking. It seems that a bunch of gas was in the intake manifold. I let it sit and will take the plugs out on Wednesday, might also change the oil too. I've seen this happen on diesels before except water was in the engine and saw it actually bend connecting rods. I'm hoping this didn't happen to the C60 engine. Anyone ever had this happen--heavy flooding and then the engine stops while cranking? Ever damaged anything--rods or ?? or maybe blow a head gasket or something? Hoping for the best but I thought I'd ask what my chances were of no major problems from the gas being in the cylinders. Thanks for any help or input.
