Default Warrior Question

I'm having some smoke out of my exhaust and I'm wondering if it could be gas getting into my carb. I noticed some gas around the outside of it and I'm thinking that could be a problem. When I cleaned my airfilter, I noticed a strong gas smell.... suggestions?

Well if you Warrior is running, then you can be sure that gas is getting into your carbeurator. Now, there may be too much gas getting through. Which might possibly be a stuck needle or float. Suggest cleaning out your carb, and give your filter a good cleaning too, then try again.

Is there a particular colour to the smoke? If it's blueish white, then you may have some engine troubles because you're burning oil. If it's black a sooty looking, then you're getting too much fuel supplied to the engine (very rich condition).

Also check your plug to see if it's dark flat or wet looking black.
