Picked up a nice but not running Victa, I could see the primer cap was new but after the chap fitted it and it wouldn't start he parked in the shed. I put some fresh fuel in, opened the tap and fuel was leaking out so I thought the o ring was old or pinched. Took the cap off, all looked good, checked the float operation and it was very stiff at the pivot points. On further inspection the post that the float slides onto is all good at the base but the the gap between the 2 closes at the top impeding the float movement, tried a couple of my floats, same deal, the o ring was fine. Turns out this new cap is slightly warped. Put one of my spares on, no leaks and runs beautiful.
