User reports gasoline leaking from a circled part on the carburetor after adding Lucas oil injector cleaner to fuel tank. Engine cranks but will not start after running for approximately two minutes then dying.

Changed the spark plug and all the filters are clean and new. I just put Lucas oil injector cleaner in the gas tank. Ran about two minutes then died and now it won't start. This circled part seems to be leaking gasoline pretty badly. Any advice?

I recently purchased a used John Deere L108 for a steal, only issue is there’s no side discharge cover. When comparing the side discharge covers I found online to my mower deck, it looks as though I’m missing the hardware it actually mounts to. My mower deck just has two holes forward of the “center” of the deck where the chute would mount. Can anyone link a picture of their mower or a good one online that shows what the discharge chute mounts to? From what I can gather, it probably looks like a long bracket with some hinge holes that the pin goes through. If I can see what I’m missing, I may have an easier time either locating the parts I need or either fabricating something that’ll work or modeling it myself and 3D printing something to at least let me attach a new side discharge chute. Thanks in advance!

Got this JD 108 for free. Going to restore it. What engine should I slap in there?

So I have an old 108 that's been repowered with a Kawasaki FC290V. My grandfather got this for me in 2000ish for my 9/10th birthday and we used it at his house for a couple years and after some major health issues I brought it over to my parents house around 08. Got it running again and it would only run for about 10 minutes and would die and wouldn't start again. I took it apart, lost interest and it's sat since then. I dug it out of the basement last week after 10 years, did the usual stuff to get her running and finally bought a new coil for it and it fired right up! Sweet so I've been piddling around with it and finally got the belts on it to mow, about 10 minutes later (longest I've had it running) it died. I let it sit and it started up, tried to mow again (and to see if it would still die) and after a couple laps it died again and won't start at all now. I've heard it could be the igniter or the PTO switch how do I test for this? No I have not checked for spark at the plug (didn't have time tonight). Thanks! UPDATE: I'm an idiot, thought I had enough fuel in it and could see fuel in the filter bowl before and didn't check it again. She was bone dry and I'm a bone head 😂
