Maybe someone can answer this for me. I have 04 and 05 blasters and my sons Polaris scrambler 90. why do all three carbs occasionally overflow once or twice after a few hours of riding? all three have clean carbs, but every now and then fuel starts dumping, I shut the petcock off, open it back up start and ride with fuel leak gone. thanks.
Carb fuel overflowing on all my quads.

Incorrect float adjustment!
Dirt in the needle and seat assembly!
Sticking/rubbing float!
Tang on float pitted!

After a period of time, varnish can buildup on the needle and seat sealing surfaces, which can cause the fuel not to be shut of completely.
Revolving a Q tip coated with a little toothpaste in the seat can help remove the varnish.
Needles do wear or the rubber tipped ones get hardened after time and may let fuel leak past!
