Default 1997 Trailblazer flooding

My 1997 Trailblazer 250 was starting on the 2nd or 3rd pull but now floods out so bad the exhaust fills up with fuel/oil. I pulled the carb and with the carb disconnected and sparkplug installed it still puts a fuel/oil mix out the exhaust. What is going on here?

I'd do a compression check first. Should be at least 120 psi or so.If lower,then could be time for a freshen up on the engine. If compression is ok, it could be as simple as needing a new carb kit. Next time on questions try posting in the Polaris section as the Suzuki guys might get a little hostile toward us...

I've cleaned the carb and will try and get a compression tester. Is it possible for 8 ounces of fuel to be in the motor? I got around that amount out of the motor without the carb connected

Does that mean we're banned from the Suzuki section or just on probation...
