My son has a 2003 XR50, all stock. Every once in a while, gas will just pour out of the overflow hose. It happens when it's running or shut off. Since I'm not a great carb guy, any suggestions? Thanks.

The float needle & seat area is probably dirty. When it's overflowing, tapping on the float bowl with a screwdriver handle will sometimes break the debris free and allow the float to do it's job. Chances are pretty good it's just junk from old gas that was sitting in the carb, and a good internal cleaning will sort it out.
