Thanks guys for the help. It was just like both of you said. A new bulb type primer allowed fuel to flow when not actuating the primer, just like the worn out plunger type. A replacement plunger type did the trick. Something worth noting which you guys may already know. I think the added fuel into my carburetors from the old primer caused a drop in my idle speed. That was the whole reason I opened the hood in the first place; on my first flight of the season, my idle was down well below 2000.
I had turned each idle stop up one quarter turn before I noticed the gas leaking out of one carb. Today, with the plunger type new primer installed and working properly, I warmed up the engine to check the idle and, sure enough, I had to turn back the idle stops to where they were before to reduce the idle back to 2000.
