I would suspect the float is either filled with fuel weighing it down causing to to overfill or the float swelled and got stuck down. Time to pull it off and check the position of the float. Could just be a piece of dirt stuck at the needle seat but you need to open it up and check.

Could just be a piece of dirt stuck at the needle seat but you need to open it up and check. Highly common problem here on new units with carbs...especially if stored in high temp areas. I have seen fuel inlet needles with damaged viton seats. Pain in the ass on a new scoot. |

I've learned to clean a new carb to get all of the dust and dirt left over from manufacturing.
