Went out to ride the Blaster a little this evening turned it on pulled the choke like I always do kicked it once and it fired then immediately died. Tried to start repeatedly and never could get it started. I looked at the inline fuel filter and it was bubbling down even when I wasn't doing anything. Pulled the plug and it was really wet, put a new one in and still couldn't get it started. Just had the carb cleaned a couple weeks ago and it has ran great since but I'm wondering if the float could be stuck?
Stuck float?

I would start by taking the in line fuel filter off. read a lot of posts on here that once removed issues go away.
pilot jet clogged
bad reeds
fuel flow problem
gas cap is venting properly
those fuel filter can cause a problem...my opinion is you dont need it

Floats occasionally do stick, but the problem is usually a dirty needle and seat.
What Blaaster said. Just cause it was clean a few weels ago doesn't mean it is now. I'd clean it again paying good atention to detail, and give ti a try again. Lose that fuel filter too, and things should be ok.
I will definitely clean the needle and the seat thanks for the input. I had t fooled with it since I posted up about it so I went out yesterday and it started first kick and ran fine. That leads me to think it's probably the inline filter like you guys said but I'm still gonna clean the carb up a bit.
