Default Rolled it over, now won't start!

I was out on a steep side hill in the snow, and barrel rolled my Xplorer 4x4 400 3 times before it stopped against a tree. It was on it's side for about 10-15 minutes. I got it back on the tires, and it fired up right away, but then died again. I tried changing the plug and it seems to be getting gas too. Could the float be stuck in the carb or something? When it does start up for a few seconds I have to choke it, but then it dies with or without the choke on. Any ideas?

Thanks

DD

I can say that it is most definately your carb. The float just needs to be cleaned a little bit, and should be good to go. Give me an update on how everything goes? Thanks
