What you may have is a leaking front bearing, I had this issue 2 seasons ago and that was my issue. To confirm get the engine running then spray brake cleaner in the area of the front bearing, if the engine dies when doing this then replace the front bearing if nothing happens then feel free to spray other areas to conferm and also look at the clutch condition.

When I bought my p5 from Monty he stressed to me to have him change the front bearing to the 17011 which I had him do...He said the stock bearing in the p5 is crap and will leak after about a gallon...Did you by chance have him do that if not i would say that is your problem..I am no expert by any means.

R u sure its the engine and not something like the tank ?

Try a different engine of the same brand preferably and see if the same symptoms persist
