Odd you didn't smell the gas, and what was the 'black' color, oil or
paint from the steering column?<br>
<br>
At age 67, nothing works as well as it used to--insert snarky
comment here ;)--but my sense of smell is better than ever, and I
can smell a gas leak from 50 feet away. Go figure (maybe with the
other senses attenuated, smell takes precedence).<br>

Just figured out where the mystery fluid leak was coming from. It
turned out to be gasoline leaking from the float to jet pipe on
the rear carb. It was dripping<span

running down to the steering box. Still need to check to see if
is just a loose connection or the pipe is broken. </span>
