This is the second posting of mine reference a similar problem. I got my sons 03 LT 50 started up this afternoon after I lossened the carb screw and releived it of some gas, but it seems I have to do this frequently. Also, when he rode it and stopped and it sat their idling you could see the drain hose just leaking out fuel. It wasn't a small drip, it was a steady flow. I'm getting the manual in the mail this week, but does anybody out there have any ideas of what I should look for? Any ideas, big or small, are greatly appreciated.
One note, it's not in the PRI (prime) position, this happens during normal runs.

Thanks.

 

I would say you have a small piece of dirt in the carb. I would tear the carb apart and clean it out real good. There is a small jet under the main jet. Make sure you remove this 1 also and clean it out also. It sounds like there is something causing the float to stick. check this area out real good. If you haven't had the float out and messed with it to mess the float level up then it has to be dirt.

 

Thanks, like I said I had mentioned a similar problem. That's the first place I'll go. I assume when I get my manual it will be rather simple to fix.

Thanks again for the help.

Hey Bluetick, thanks to you and another who recommended the carb...I tore this thing down last night and clean the heck out of it. Put it back to gether and I barely pulled the cord before it started. I bought the LT50 manual from RMATV and followed there diagrams...this couldn't have been any easier.

Thanks.
