Just read on another thread about a small oil leak and it prompted me to ask about a small leak on my Warrior.

Recently, I have noticed a small area on the cowling floor beneath the carburetor that has a small area with a small drip of gas. I can tell it is gas because it is blue. I always clean it off with a rag. Then fly and recheck it after the flight. No leaks. If it sits for a few days, the blue gas stain will be there again.

A couple of pilot friends have said it is just cold weather and they will leak a little.

Any thoughts?
