just wondering if anyone else has the problem of their carb leaking when they park it. mine seems to be coming from the drain hose that comes out the back. i turn off the gas and everything but it still leaks onto the floor. Any one have any solutions?
 
Never had this problem with my Warrior, but I had the exact same problem with my Kawasaki Lakota. There was a piece of plastic from the tank stuck in the float valve. I added a filter to prevent that problem. The float valve could be worn out, or the float may need adjusting. Take the carb apart and check the float valve. It should not have a groove in it where it meets the seat. Measure the float height. Adjust as necessary.
 
That does kinda sound like a float thing, mine does the same kinda thing but it stops when I turn off the gas.
