Where is your gas tank located, higher than the carburetor? It could be the needle in your carburetor float not seating / sealing completely and overflowing while it's parked and getting into the crankcase via the intake manifold, then into the cylinders and past the rings. Do you have a shut-off valve installed? (Do you use it?) |

Got the original style VW fuel pump? Those have been known for the diaphragms to go bad occasionally. They will leak gas into the engine sometimes when they do. |
