Went to the track today and after going around once the motor starting bogging down so I went back. It feels like there is compression on the first kick but not as strong after that. I have spark. I cleaned the carb out and there is still gas pouring out of the overflow after I replaced the needle and seat. Tried a new plug. Could it be that the gas coming into the carb is flooding it every time.. Tell me what you think. THANKS
I may have a blown motor

i would say get the carb fixed first and then try to test the compression with a compression tester
Yea if gas is pouring out of the overflow then your float is stuck. Try simply tapping on the side of the carb to see if you can get the overflow to stop pouring out gas.
If that does not work you will have to take your carb apart and find out why its stuck.

shut the fuel off from the fuel valve if you cannot detect your problem with the fuel , take your compression test should be around 120 give or take , if you have no compression or low compression you rings may have cracked in half or something like that , take the head off then your jug ,make sure your oil pump is working and getting oil .I myself disconnected this oil pump and lines and tank ,I do not trust them ,I just mix my 4 ouces of oil to 1 gal of gas . 1 less headache ,my thoughts .make sure you get a repair book ,
thanks for the feed back...I took it in to the repair shop. I broke a reed because my carb was taking in to much air.
