Carb Overflow

[avenger1234]

After spending 1 hr out on the sands,, i suddenly lost all power and could not get the blaster to restart.

Upon returning back and having a quick look around,,, did the usall, check spark, air filter and then checked if there was gas in the carb by opening up the bottom screw to see if carb had gas.. It did, The tightened the screw up and turned on gas to on,, result was that gas leaked from all three tubes,, and it continues to flow untill the gas control is put to off..

Help any ideas,,, ? time to strip the carb down?

any help / comments gratefully recived

check ur float level. it may be too high.

resorted to a small tap with a spanner so stoped the flow...

Does this indicate that the carb should be cleaned??

thanks

wut kind of airfilter/box do u ha ve, the carb might juss have some sand particles in it making it stick wide open, better not let the sand get into ur motor if that is the problem

It is all standard,, any recommendations on a better filter for sand then?
