I would be shutting your gas off when you park it, my old big red was like that, it would seep in while sitting there, dont know why but doesn;t matter i sold it, and just told the guy make sure you shut off the gas

Sounds like your float valve is sticking or worn out. Better get it fixed before you spoil your motor. :'(

It is like brook said the float valve in the carb is not sealing properly. When this happens the gas overflows out of the carb thru the intake to top of the piston and then into the crankcase. I would defintly get this fixed for obvious reasons. It could be just a simple carb cleaning that is all required or replace the needle valve in the carb.
Good Luck!
