Leaky Petcock?

[Jacques, Martin, VF-Group]

If you have the same problem that I did fairly recently, I would expect
that it is the actual fuel lines themselves leaking, rather than the
petcock. They have probably cracked and brittled with age. I imagine
that the fuel is leaking slowly but constantly whilst the engine is
running, you only noticed it when you stopped.
 
I recommend replacing the fuel pipes anyway to be honest, unless you
know for sure they have been done recently.
