Default Flooding the Air box?

Has anyone ever had this problem?
Fuel is flooding out of the left side of the air box.
I have no Ram Air's on the bike to work on it.
I cranked it yesterday twice and this never happend!
Thanks Mike

It's one of your floats man. did you pull out all the float needles?

I'm gonna bet it's the float valve seat. Usually there's an oring there that can produce these problems

Thanks Breagle
Yes I have pulled the diaphrams and needles to check them all...but haven't that O-ring.
It seems to act like it's my carb. #1 so I'm going to check it now.
O yeah ? about the AICV how can I tell if the electronics are bad on it?
Thanks Mike
