If it did not leak while it was sitting before you tried to start it, the needle and seat is not the problem. Like poster said, choking the engine will cause fuel to run out of bottom if it does not start. With an updraft carburetor not all the fuel is drawn up into engine at low cranking speeds so if it does not start the gasoline collects in the inlet and leaks out drip hole. I have to disagree on seating the needle though. It may or may not be necessary. If it is a worn out one with a groove a good seating job may get you by for a while. If it is a new needle and seat, well, a whole lot of them are poorly made and the hole is not round so they need to be thrown away or seated to work. Some like to seat the viton tipped needle, I don't. Isn't it great. Almost as many opinions as a medical team has when diagnosing your health.
