I talked to my dad and he said the normal repair for them was to put a kit in the carb and to add an in-line fuel filter. For extra precaution he suggested a in-line cut off valve if the one under the tank is not readily acessible. They also suggested to their customers to not only check the oil level but to smell it as well. If you only have a slight leak and the motor is using/leaking a bit of oil, it is a little hard to detect just by looking at the level.
