Lawnmower Losing Petrol

    Hi Folks - Looking for some advice. Have a Briggs & Stratton Mower. Every time I cut the grass it doesn't matter how much petrol is in the tank when I am finished cutting the grass the tank is always emptry when I go to use it the next week. I have put a container under the carburettor and even left the whole mower on a sheet of cardboard and can detect no leakage.
    It is obviously evaporating away but I have never expereienced this before.
    Any advise?
    Thanks.

    seems like your fuel line is perished, easy & cheap fix

    Yes makes sense. Lately I have had to clean the carburettor quite a bit. Dirt getting into the jet.
    That's coming from the fuel line then?
    Brilliant- Thanks
