Gas everywhere - 11/23/2008 9:25:45 PM

Hey fellas, a guy I hunt with has an 02 rancher 350. Well it has been running fine lately and Saturday afternoon after he got back from his hunt his bike wouldn't start. I don't know how long he tried to start it, but when I a looked in the air box there was gas 3/4 the way up the box, he had gas in the oil, and gas in the exhaust. What could be the cause of the problem here? I would think its the carb float stuck but not exactly sure. When you turn the gas valve on, the gas starts running from the carb straight into the airbox. He has good fire, new plug and all so you guys got any ideas? Thanks...

I'd say its a good chance theres something wrong with the float lol. That would be the first thing I'd check.

Yeah, thats what I figured it would be. I was just wondering if there was anything else that could also cause this problem.
