briggs has gas dripping from air box and passing thru exhaust?
My mower ( 17hp briggs) ran out of gas. I refilled the tank, tried to start it and white smoke poured out of the exhaust. I could see gas sputtering out of the muffler and the air box was full of gas. I let it sit thinking it was flooded but when I returned half the tank was empty and gas was running out of the air box.
