Ok, I know it's not a spree but I got nowhere else to turn, besides my buddy got some great help from this place.

Anyhoo, this thing is flooding like there's no tomorrow.. I checked inside the carb and there isnt any real way to adjust the float from what I can see..

On the outside of the carb, there are 3 adjuster screws... Ones for excess flooding, the other two, from what I can tell, adjust the idle... Oh and this thing is smoking like it wants global warming next week..

Help?!

Flooding carb = bad float shutoff. Just replace it and you should be fine, a cleaning of the shutoff and seat may suffice.
