Any tripower specialists Central FL?
 
Recently tried to start car after sitting for 4 years...front carb started leaking around shaft a little. I cranked the car again and there came gas flying out of the carb. anyone in Central FL area that rebuilds these carbs...or is there anything simple I can check? Ran fine 4 years ago...maybe something hung up in there or clogged?

Problem is simple. The needle/seat is not shutting off gas at startup. Pulling the top off the front carb and replacing the needle/seat is not difficult. PM me if you want a new needle/seat & gasket before you begin.
