2000 Arctic Cat 500 4x4 Fuel Problems

[jjlangford74]

I have a 2000 Arctic Cat 500 4x4 (Green w/Manual Trans), and it started having problems cranking......and I noticed that my crank case was full of fuel.....I took carb off and cleaned....ran a while, and still have fuel going to the crank case......any other ideas of what I might try to fix this issue?

I agree with everyone above, give it another cleaning.

Also I am not sure if the 2000 is gravity fed or not but make sure you have the fuel turned off when the quad is sitting. And if you have snorkels sometimes (vary rare) when transporting the ATV there is a sort a vacuum on the carb and it can draw excess gas into the carb and leak past the rings.
