[Farmall] M carburetor seepage

[Andy glines]

I think that these guys have it about right Dean. 
Start shutting the fuel off at the tank.  It sounds
like the float may need adjusting a little.  If the
tractor runs good and is not smoking I would leave it
alone.  You can put a new gasket between the bowl and
the top half but don't depend on it not leaking
afterward.
