what type of vehicle are you talking about ?
if it is a T137 PW then
you might crawl underneath at the front of the
gas tank, loosen the fuel inlet & see what if
anything comes out and if it is clean & clear
if not you might consider removing the tank
and having it cleaned.
if the fuel leaks out of the carb (down into
the crankcase) after sitting for a few days
then you might want to have the carb rebuilt
take the inlet line loose from the carb,
remove the coil wire (so it wont start) crank the engine over & see how much fuel spurts out.
just a few easy things to check
do not just go changing parts (ie the fuel pump ) until you have pinpointed the problem
