i dont see one listed. cant you just buy the parts you think are worn out instead of buying a complete kit that you may not need/

About the only wear parts are the float needle valve and seat and the needle jet and tube.
Check on Ebay for a seller called Sledpartsguy for carb kit it will get you the needle and seat cheaper than gong through Polaris but the needlevalve and tube you have to go Polaris for that.
Also if you are still running the intake tube that the prefilter goes on check the wire inside it.This can suck shut under throttle.

I also have same unit with perhaps a different problem with gas leaking through a tube connected to bottom of carb. Does not leak with shut off valve turn off position, only when on gas position. I did remove carb and cleaned, but still leaks. What parts need to be replacled, and where can i buy online. I am first time ATV owner. I friend gave a 1995 Sportsman 4x 4 unit to my family and kids want to drive unit yesterday.I also need to buy service manuel and owners' manuel.
Thanks for help.

You need a new float, and float needle and seat assembly. That should fix it.

that is what the problem is your float valve is not seating into it's hole in the seat assembly, so it is overfloaing the carb beond the point in which it no longer needs the drain screw at the bottom of the carb open, while replaceing the float valve assembly ( Needle and seat) if you look at the drain screw setup their is a low point(drain point) and a high point the high point bypass's the screw so when the float is stuck open fuel does not overtake the motor and carb fairly uneffective in my opinion.
