dumping fuel through manifold

OK so this formula plus keeps geting better and better.. I think theres something wrong with the carbs..
I pulled the exhaust off to fix the Recoil that broke. and the air box. and pulled to make sure the recoil was good b4 i put it all back together and GAS dumped out of my pipe and out of the header every time i pull the cord. so i took the spark plugs out and its like a damn GEISER when I pull. what the heck is going on with this thing...? does it just need the carbs re-tuned or do i have something much more serious going on????

The float needles aren't closing to stop the flow of fuel to the carbs. Go to the carb cleaning section in the engine how-tos.

If the rear of the sled is off the ground, it may not let the floats close properly, flooding the engine.

i had about 5 gallons of gas in the pipe. i was scared to take the springs off to dump it out, sometimes if it slips out of the pliers it will spark. i put a screwdriver through the loop and pulled them off that way. i found out that neither of my fuel shut off valves worked because i had them in the off position.
