I'm having a problem with my 3- Wheeler, the carburator is getting to much gas. If any of you have a diagram, I need the help.

What do you mean "to much gas"?Is gas flowing out of the overflow tube or is it bogging down when you give it gas?

I put a spark plug in, it runs good, at high rpms it starts skipping then the plug fouls out and has to be replaced again

As far as I know, it's factory. I work in the tree removal business and a customer gave it to me several months back. It hadn't been touched in years and I gave it a good maintenance. I don't know what to do about this.

float level, todays "oxy" fuel eats the rubber float valve in storeage and this will allow to much fuel to enter. I always run my bikes and quads on premix before storeage as the oil helps protect the rubber carb parts
