Default Need help with my 06 yfz 450

i just recently got this, and something is wrong any help would be greatly appreciated.

I can start it the first time. it will run for alittle bit then die and when i start it again and let it run it will act like it's almost flooded and gas will poor out of a hose. I'm not pushing the gas to start it though.

I'm not that familiar with working on atvs, so any help would be nice.

Have you tried cleaning the carb? If not, I would start by cleaning it. If gas is coming out of the hose then the carb is flooding, inspect the float and float valve when you have the carb disassembled.

These guys are right. 9 times out of 10 when I"ve seen this happen some crap is stuck up in the float assembly somewhere.
