One or both of the floats are faulty, it shouldn't have leaked just with the
front on stands.  You've quite likely cooked the ignition coil as well, and
flattened the battery, unless you happened to have turned the engine manually
and ended up in a position where the points were open, an engine almost always
stops with them closed.  Some electronic ignition systems protect the coil in
this event, in various ways.

  ... I left the switch in the on position until I got
  home from work and smelled gas everywhere in the garage...
