Default Warrior carb question...

When I bought my Warrior last summer, it was running a little rough so I disassembled the carb, cleaned it and had it running perfect until now. It's an 02 that was barely ridden and everything was in good shape so I only cleaned it up rather than a full rebuild. I've only ridden it 20 hours or so and it's now overflowing as soon as I turn the fuel on. I pulled the needle and there's a small ring around the rubber needle end that looks like it was torn away. Since everything else in the carb is clean and runs fine, I'm hoping to only replace the needle. Is it possible to buy this alone?

You can't just get the needle, chances are the seat is a little worn too, so a needle and seat set will get your carb back in shape. Not cheap at the dealer, I think I paid about 14 bucks for mine, on eBay, I've seen complete rebuild kits with the needle and seat for 20 bucks, never hurts to have the gaskets and such when tearing the carb apart.
