I have a 2001 Yamaha Warrior and when I put the gas on it leaks right out of the overflow tube from the carb, when I nock on the bowl it stops. I took the bowl off and everything seemed fine, the floats were not full of gas, I did not see anything that might be making the floats get stuck. But when I put the carb back together it was fine for a little bit but started up again. Does anybody have any ideas how I could stop this? When it does run it runs fine, it's just trying to get it started with the gas flowing out.

just take the float valve apart first and check if there's just some dirt in it. If that seems fine, and it doesn't look like the seats or needle are worn, i might start with replacing the floats or sanding down the edges some to make sure they're not getting caught on the edge of the bowl or something. These stock carbs are pretty much junk.

The cheapest place to get the edelbrock carb is on ebay for $366 shipped, or at least back when I bought it, that was the cheapest by almost 80 bucks. The installation is pretty simple. The most time consuming part of the whole installation is that you have to grind down a bit of the stock throttle housing in order to get the carb to open full throttle. That still only takes about 10 minutes with a dremel, and you can even do that ahead of time so you can just throw the edelbrock right in when you get it. The edelbrock works so much better than the stock carb, and is so much quicker and easier to tune.
