gas coming out of overflow hose
 

got go kart started but gas comes out overflow hose started mini fire lucky to get out before to much damage what would cause that

Typically a stuck float or bad needle and seat will cause that. Did this machine sit unused for a period of time?

yes it did it is the same one you just posted online about big buggies

I can almost promise you that you need to get in that carburetor and clean it. Very few sit and get away without having to be cleaned. It is not that big of a deal. Just take your time. The pay off will be worth it when you go to start it and it runs right and actually idles.

ok ty very much i will you think it might be the needle too i saw your pic of opened ones i took that off it looked ok but not sure

Most times, a good cleaning will do the trick. It is rare for me to have to actually replace a needle and seat assembly in these.

that helps very much ty hope fire didnt do too much damage well find out tomorrow
