Been working on a friend's scooter that hasn't worked in 2yrs. I got it running, by cleaning the carb and also went and installed some slighly larger jets yesterday. But here's the problem, the thing is like poring out gas thru the small tube on the carb's side and is also blowing some out the freaking Air intake box.........Any ideas??!

It sounds like the float is stuck or set too high. You can start by tapping on the bowl with a screwdriver to see if it stops leaking. If not, you're going to need to pull the carburetor off and check the float height as well the needle and seat to make sure there's no debris in there.

Ah, thanx. It was indeed float related, the float valve was corroded causeing it to stick.
