Carb is leaking fuel from the drain.
I have a 83 185s and it was sitting a few years, drained the old fuel but when i put new fuel in, gas just comes pouring out of the overflow tube on the bottom of the carb. I didnt want to take the carb apart yet to see, i am thinking something is stuck or do i need to take it apart and get a rebuild kit. What would cause the fuel to come out like that?
Any suggestions.
Thanks,
Chris

Usually you can get away without having to replace the gasket, what people usually do is strip the screws on the float . Dont be lazy, pull the carb off, there is no shortcuts in this. Pull off the carb and check the float valve , properly clean your main jet, pilot jet etc. this should take care of the prob, good luck.
