    Should be the needle valve. Either it is worn where it is supposed to seat or the float is stuck and the needle won't seat. I've done this several times--once, the needle was bad--other times were my fault putting things together. It's no big deal either way

    The Go-Go girl leaked fuel out of the back after I let a Quadboy run over his leg riding it and tipped it on it's side. I assume the float stuck open and caused the fuel to rush straight through it out that back line. He then showed another Trike-Riding-Wannabe how to kickstart it, and broke the lever.
