I just went out to start my r and when I turned the gas on it just started pouring out. I found that the hose that attaches off the bottom or the card (one the is on the shifter side on bottom right) does not hook in to anything and the gas is just pouring out? I can not figure out where it goes? can anyone help? I searched the service manual but it did not help. I went out and rode the other day with no problem now this happens. Thanks guys

sounds like yur floats stuck open, pull the carb apart an cleen it up good an then try it.

that tube doesnt hook to anything its an overflow tube.

All 3 of my hoses off my carb do not connect to anything?

The only one that goes to anything is the one from the off/on valve.The rest are overflow/vent tubes.Only way gas can come out of those is like Zed said,the flots are stuck open allowing fuel from the tank to overfill the carb bowl.Shut off the fuel and remove the bowl and clean the carb.Probaly has something in the flot needle/seat hanging it open.Not uncommon.
