I recently got my first sled. The 95 600 XCR has 4000 miles on it but has been sitting for about 8 years. When he put it away it ran great and he drained the gas and fogged it. When I got it today I added clean gas, new plugs, oil, and antifreeze. It pulled real hard so I dumped a little gas into the cylinders. It fired right up. Everything seemed to be good. Then I noticed some gas underneath it. I followed it and finally found it was coming off of each carb. There is a tube running from each carb that has a plastic piece on it (with VAC on it). The gas is pouring out of these. After looking over the forum a little I think the carbs need to be cleaned. There is a float or valve or something that is stuck open allowing too much gas into the carb and letting if spill out the tube. Does this sound right? Before I tear apart the carbs and clean them I want to make sure. Also, I have done a little carb work before (snowblowers, 4 wheelers) but never on a sled. Is there anything I need to know? How do I make sure I have all 3 setup right? I've never worked on anything with multiple carbs. Any help would be appreciated. I know this is a long post, but I have had a lot of great experience on 4 wheeler forums. Thanks all.
