Default Eiger gas in Crank case and airbox and now won't start

OK so I have a 2002 Eiger. I was riding it up my yard when it just shut off and died and would not start. When I checked the plug it was black and there was lots of fuel in the air box. I check the oil and it was full of gas also. I cleaned the carb because i assumed the float got stuck and changed to oil of course. Now I can not get my eiger to fire up. I do have good spark so it must be a carb issue. Is there adjustment I am missing or something Please help me!!!!!

check to be sure that your carb floats have not absorbed any fuel
the older plastics used were never made to tolerate ethanol or cleaners in the fuels
these 2 additives just eat away at those plastics
there are newer carb rebuild kits with new floats that tolerate the newer fuels

the fuel inlet valve is jammed open ( fill )
