Hope you guys can help me. I hurriedly parked my trusty '95 while I went to look at something off the trail. I returned 30 seconds later to find it tipped over; I hadn't noticed the ground was soft. I pulled it upright, started it up and rode away. After a few seconds, it began running very roughly. If I tried to idle it below 3,000 rom, it would start to die. When I got to a stopping place, I shut it down and poked around, looking for something obvious. It would not restart. I removed the gas line from the tank to make sure fuel was flowing as I cranked the motor. No problems there. As I did this, fuel drained out from the carb. When I reattached the hose, the motor started up quickly, but ran in the same rough way. The weather is really beautiful today; I'm anxious to get going again. Any ideas? Kevin

<><><><><><><> <><><><><><><> Kevin, I wonder if the float in the carb might have got stuck open and it's running rich. Maybe try banging on the side of the float bowl with a hammer handle or screwdriver handle and see if that knocks it loose.
