Cart was running fine then suddenly would not start. Checked plug noticed it was full of gas.
Replaced carb. has good spark but still flooding. Any ideas?

did you replace with a new carb. also make sure that the choke is adjusted properly and check out the fuel pump . got to be getting to much fuel through the carb. the valves could also cause this problem.

I had the very same problem. The piston was broke on the exhaust side. It would load the cylinder w/fuel but wouldnt start due to no compression.check your compression. see if it will run with exhaust unhooked.mine would but barely.when you unhook the exhaust there is no back pressure on the piston.So it may start.hope this helps. good luck.

Unhooked exhaust,gas poring out. Do i still need to check pressure? if so i will go buy a pressure checker. yes the carb is new.
Thanks.

Checked Compression, 125psi, what to check next?

check the fuel pump again sounds like a bad diaphram fuel flowing right into the crankcase.

Can't see any visible problems with fuel pump, pulled apart no apparent tears or holes,although not sure what to look for.
Anymore suggestions?
Thanks, Terry

Is it getting spark? Take the new carb apart and clean it. Look for dirt in the needle and seat.
