It makes sense at least. If they leak, then they'll drip in to the intake and flood the engine. I'm supposing that it's either a) not bad enough to completely flood it, or b) you have a pretty healthy engine so it's really hard to flood in the first place. Either way, you should probably remove them and send them out to get cleaned. Don't just try an in-tank cleaner.... you'll be very disappointed.
