It started and ran for about five seconds, then died. I tried starting it again and gas ran out of the carb air intake. I cleaned the carb and put a kit in it before I tried starting the M, but for some reason the carb is flooding.

One thing I do know is that the float does not have a hole in it, beyond that I have no idea as to what is wrong. Does anyone have any ideas?
