Just out curiosity, I reinstalled my dried-out teapot and spun the engine awhile with the plugs removed. Sure enough, gas started pouring out between the body sections and running into the secondaries.

I then pulled it, connected an old fuel line, and rigged it to a long hose attached to a gallon jug of gas hanging 6 ft. overhead, with a catch pan under the carb. Checked it after a couple days, and no more leak. Not sure of fuel pump pressure vs. gravity, but if everything OK when I install it again, I'm guessing a small bottle of stabilized gas connected to the fuel inlet (float propped up/metal needle valve) might be the way to store a spare when it's taken out of service (assuming proper fire/ventilation precautions), or at least the way to prep it for installation?
