Default Banshee Leaking Gas

I went for a ride this weekend and went to gas up. The wheeler was on reserve because the gas was low. I think something got sucked into one of the carbs. because when i turned the gas back to on... its started to load up. When i got back to camp it started to pour out of the fuel tubes exiting one of the carbs. My question is what would make this do this. Is it the float sticking? help me out

Thanks

Ive had that exact same problem with mine, and all you have to do is turn the gas off, when it stops leaking, turn it back on and it will stop.
