I am going to try the carb cleaning first, as that is probably the easiest thing and because the buggie was running fine and starting very easily until I made a turnaround at the end of the driveway. I am thinking that a stuck float and dirty needle valve may be causing the carb to fill with gas and flood the cylinder and pour back into the intake. I am not much of a mechanic, so am wondering if I have my thinking cap on straight? Are parts readily available for these engines?
