12.5 Vanguard Gas Flowing Out Overflow

[m38inmaine]

HI Gang, just got the first test drive on the restored 92 MaxII today and I have quite a bit of gas coming out the carburetor overflow tube. Any ideas why this is happening? It's a 92 B/S Vanguard 12.5Hp.

Thanks

Thanks, I ordered a new float valve and body gasket, I'll report back when I get it replaced.
