Blaster carb leaks tons of gas
Okay, so this is probably a simple question and I hope that I am over analyzing this.
So, the float in my carb. can get stuck on occasion and causes the Blaster to bog down or tun terribly. So, that fixed multiple times. (on to the real problem) when I load the bike into my trailer (the last time) I drove it up the ramp and tightened it all down. By the time I stopped to dump the trailer I walked into the trailer to the overwhelming smell of gas. The carb. pretty much just let go and gas was everywhere! Should I have shut the gas valve to "off" or done something to cause the carb. to not let go all of its gas on my toy hauler's floor! This was not just a little gas, this is like it got scared and released itself all over my toy hauler's floor!
Thanks,

Well, generally I always shut the fuel off when I am not riding my bike--but it still shouldn't just come pouring out like that. Something is sticking open in the carb causing it to overflow, and it really sounds like your kind ole float bowl again. I'd pull it apart and clean the hell out of everything and go from there.
