This is a question on another forum I'm a member of and I thought I would ask the experts here. The carburetor on this 60 is squirting fuel out from a small hole on the side of the carb. What is the issue? Does anyone have an idea? Thank you for any help.

That is the air vent to the float chamber. What it means is the float is not working and shutting off the fuel and over filling the float chamber with gasoline. Could be a bad float, bad needle and seat or just dirt keeping the needle open. When you get it fixed change the oil as it is now full of fuel. Roger
