Well it was a leaky float. I drilled a hole, drained the gas and resoldered it and were back to normal. I'll probably get a new one but it's working fine now so that was definitely the problem. It...

I had checked the fuse and it seemed fine but I went and checked it again and now we seem to be OK. Perhaps it is just a contact issue so I'll clean everything up on the fuse case. Hopefully that is...
