    no it doesnt have dual lines. It leaks directly out of the fuel shut off valve.

    valve

    My prairie leaks around the lever itself sometimes when I shut it off. I think maybe an O-ring inside or something is bad. It has did this since it was brand new. I fixed it by not shutting it off!!!
