Default Tried pull starting xplorer and fuel spewed out!?!

hey everybody. I went out today and tried to start my 98 xplorer 300 2stroke today and the bat. was dead so i tried pull starting it. Well when i did fuel just pored out of the recoil housing! I have never heard of this before and i was wondering why? What has gone wrong? There is a ton of gas in there too! Like someon didnt know how to put gas in it and just filled it up with the pull starter.

sounds like your float is stuck wide open and it filled the base w/ gas and leaked by the seal.
