Default carb help on 04 AC 400 4x4!

My girl has a 04 AC 400 4x4 that is leaking gas from the overflow tube coming out from the carb bowl.
she said that she had the carb serviced, but i believe they just cleaned and replaced a few parts and not the float or it's components.

what do ya recommend to fixx this prob it leaks gas and will not stop i have to keep a jug under it al all times to catch the gas that it escaping.

The float must be sticking and not rising to shut the gas flow off. I had my carb apart on the quad, had it turned sideways and the pin that holds the float in place slipped out. i finally found it on the garage floor and put it back together. Yours is either sticking or fell apart as it was being put back together. Since mine was still on the quad, I spent 45 minutes hunting down where all the parts fell on the motor and garage floor.

Find out what is wrong first. Whoever worked on it may have screwed up. Nothing should have to be replaced yet. It may just be gummed up and need cleaning. I would bet its a free fix,,,,,
