Jim, 
        You've no doubt figured it out by now.....the plastic (brass capped) 
plug in the bottom of the fuel bowl has a rubber o-ring seal, which should be 
replaced.  This plug can ONLY be removed from the inside of the fuel bowl as 
the plastic tabbing setup is not the strongest, and you will break them if not 
careful.  I eliminated the problem altogether by swapping the offending fuel 
bowl with that of a later year ZS 150 with NO PLUG!
