C152 Misbehaving

C152 that I usually fly began to leak a copious amount of fuel from primer and underneath the primer. It just so happens that the primer on the 152 is located adjacent to the master electrical switch and with fuel dripping out it made me feel very uneasy. (may just take one spark). Anyway, I tried to lock the primer but after several tries realized that it wouldn't lock. so after a few I walked back to the club and decided to pack it in for the day as the clubs other Cessna was also broken.

My questions are:

what is the cause of this problem, could it have been very serious and finally if the primer had of locked would you have flown the aircraft?

Thanks
