MAy be time for a carb rebuild. Floats in the carbs a brass and hard to find so be careful.

Took carb off and found gas fills up in the bowl but I dont think gas is spraying into the carb,I blew out and still no gas spraying in carb is there a pump that does this or if gas is filling up the bowl does this mean my fuel pump is ok
