hello all i have a 03 honda rancher 350 2x4. I have taken off the carbs and cleaned them at least 5 times in the past week and everything looks ok to me. My problem is the gas just doesn't stop going to the engine until it floods out. And if i let the atv sit, the cylinders will fill up with soo much gas it won't turn over. Also the gas runs out of the bottom of the carbs. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Your carb float is screwed up.
You have to figure out why the float is not doing it's job.
Could have a bur on the pin? Could have a leak in the float?

Could be many things wrong.

In your case the float system is not working and this is what you have to look at to fix your problem.

the float moves freely up and down and i dont think it has a leak in it

Make sure the rubber tip on the float needle is good. Or just replace it for a few bucks.

Needle and seat are bad, replace them and start turning the gas off when not in use, will make them last longer.

If I'm not mistaken, your model has a primer pump **** on the bottom of the float bowl (as many Hondas do).

If the seals in the primer pump are bad the result will be overflowing the float bowl.

In a situation like yours (carb overflows but needle, seat, and float look great), I'd bet you will find that is your problem.

thanx guys that took care of it

Could you be a bit more specific, for the benefit of the forum? What fixed it?
