I just bought 85 Tri-Z 250 and I started it up but its leaking through the over flow hoses. You guys think it's my floater getting stuck or debris in my carb? What do you suggest?

Check your needle valve. If there is a small wear ring or groove around it, replace it. Verify your float "floats" as well.

It's a larger kiehn carb. Took it apart the inside was dirty. Sprayed carb cleaner and put it back together. Not one drop of gas. Thanks guys for the help!
