my carb is leaking out of the bottom where you drain the carb. i had it cleaned a bunch and i put a jet kit in it and had it rebuilt and it still does it. its been in the shop 3 times and they still havent fixed it. it doesnt do it when its just sitting there idleing but if you shake it or ride it it leaks. i put a screw in the bottom of the drain tube so i wont waste so much gas and it seems to run fine. any suggestions or instructions would be very much appreciated.

thank you very much for your time!!

either your float is improperly set(too high) or your needle & seat is leaking.

if it is leaking out the very bottom of the bowl it could be the drain screw is not sealing off properly.
