Couple recommendations:
-On the wiring harness If you determine you really need one, you can buy it cheaper than you can build them and it will have all the right ends and gage wire. BTW you need to pull the engine to change the wiring harness. ( I built one, wired it up wrong burnt it up and had to build another one)
-On the fuel leak, sounds like the carb may need a rebuilt. Get a kit, take your time and rebuild the carb. ( I did not have the float set right and flooded the carb)
-The PTO should be able to be adjusted to stop the spinning. I think you may be able to fix that by shortening the linkage rod with the turn buckle. (Mine is spinning the snow thrower a little and needs to be adjusted too )
I am sure others on here can help with many more details than I have given you.

Chris hit it dead on the head, new wiring harness, and a good carb soaking and rebuild kit.
I did the same with my 147.
