Default Lt 80 carb problem

we went to the dunes this weekend and i noticed that the gang wasn't right behind me so i turn around, and get back to find everyone parked around the 80 well i go up and the thing fires right up but then it would just start to die, but if you push off then on the trottle it would catch again, well i think what happened is my daughter was riding hard thru the whoops and the float level must of got out of adjustment. my question is is there a easy way to get that carb off everything on that thing is small and hard to get to.

The float level is fine (besides there is no float level adjustment). It sucked a piece of sand in.
To remove the carb I have a 8mm snap-on wrench. Only one small and strong enough to loosen the carb bolts.
FYI: I lay on the seat and put my arms down to the carb.
hint: silicone that o-ring in that plastic piece. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
