Why does your carburetor leak gas?
I have no idea why your carburetor leaks gas. For starters, I have no idea what type of engine you have. If it is a car, it is an old one since you do not have fuel injection. Maybe you should clean the grease and grime that has built up over the last 20 years off your carburetor and engine. Next, take a wrench, not a pair of pliers, and tighten the connections. They may have come loose. Now start your engine and try to see if you can tell where the gas might be leaking. Take the air filter off your carburetor. If it was not a loose connection and is not a leaking tube that you can replace then you have done all you can do and need to take it to a regular mechanic.

Gas leaking out of carburetor in Harley Davidson?
You have to be more precise - where on the carburetor is the gas leaking from? The fuel line on the late model CV carburators enters from the bottom left as you face the carburetor and you could have a leak there, particularly if an aftermarket clamp replaces the original. If its leaking out the front - into the air filter system, then you might want to check the float level and likely replace the float valve. I'll be quite honest with you, with the late model carburators is is less expensive to buy a good used one on E-Bay than it is to repair one in most cases - there are lots of them and they are very inexpensive despite being one of the best CV carburators on the market.
How do you stop your carburetor from leaking gas?
Your float is stuck, a quick fix is tapping on the float bowl with a wrench or the handle of a screwdriver, but you need to tear your carb down and give it a good cleaning.
