Hy there great to be able to communicate with people having knowledge I have a continuous problem with a leaking carburetor and I just saw a small rubber hose detached from the bottom of the carburetor and i cannot find were it should be attached and how the two side should be affixed to the carburetor any suggestions as i cannot find a description plan on it thank you Bob

The small hose may be a vent hose, but that would not cause a leak, if you carb is leaking its usually a stuck float needle float not working properly or gasket failure.

There should be a short brass tube on the bottom of the carb for a rubber hose I'd think.

The leak..  There's a drain screw on the bottom of the carb I think, and that might be leaking. Other than that it shouldn't leak unless the fuel level inside the carb is too high.

I think you can check the fuel level before removing the carb. To adjust the fuel level, or fix the leaking float level valve, you will be best to remove the carb and clean it and check the rubber parts aren't worn or perished. You might be able to remove the bottom of the carb in place but it's best to take the carb right off, strip it entirely, clean and inspect it all and then reassemble it and it should be right for years.
