That's funny Steve.lol. Some aren't as bad as others, but they are know to be drippers. David, they drip out the the "slobber tube" (nickname) or "air box breather tube" (actual name). As one saying goes; if it stops dripping that's the time to worry. That's life with a 2-stroke 2-cycle engine. They are a tough monster other that. Just have to look forward to drips and dirty hands to work on them. Use a drip pan or can to catch it and save the spots from getting on the shop floor.

Extensive idling will create the most drip. During cooler weather and where it's humid, use the blog heater and that helps some too.
