Default carbs!!

hello I'mlooking for some help and if someone could have time yoto help me I would appreciate it, I have a 96 f3 stunt bike (12 oclock bar, cage no fairings), I dropped the bike the ohter day very very light drop like 1 or 2 mph, and after that my bike didn't want to start, when it was on its side I saw gas mix with oil leaking from one side, so when I got home I took my tank off, air box and air filter and three was oil all over my air box, and I did some research and probaly went down my cylynder and got my motor jam ( dont know the right name for kind of hydro lock or something like that) so what I was told to do was to take my spark plugs out and crank it, and oil was spilled, after that I got new plugs put them in, and my bike started, a lil bit of white smoke came out of it but after a lil spin it run great, the next day I tried to turn the bike on, it wouldnt turn on, and the time it started it would die if I gave it a lil bit of gas, so I took again the spark plugs off and clean them put them back in, and it run for 2 or 3 minutes but if I let off the gas it would die, after that no luck, I did start it once with the choke and it run for about 30 seconds, it's kind of driving me crazy, and and it also sounds weird, as if it would be running on 3 cylenders.
should I clean my carburators? if so is it easy? Cause I've never clean ones, any pics, help, pointers, recomendatios I would really appreciate thanks
thanks in advenced for any help!

My god. Did you drop it at 2mph upside down and off a cliff?

Something broke. Like something SERIOUS broke.

The RIGHT answer is that you need to fully disassemble the airbox and carbs, and clean them thoroughly, and inspect for damage. the damage is probably in the engine itself, possibly a broken cylinder seal. After that, change your oil. Whatever's left of it leaked back in, and probably has all sorts of crud in it now.

If you're not big into the "right" way, you can try throwing a bunch of Seafoam through it. You'd still have to clean out your airbox (use brakleen), and you'd probably be spitting out white smoke (oil) for a day. If you do this, keep an eye on your oil levels and pressure.

Loosen the plug all the way, the just use a pair of long forceps. In a pinch, I've used a rod with some really sticky tape on the end. So long as the other half of the plug is loose and just floating, you can pull it out with no resistance.
