Sounds like either the floats are sticking or the fuel tap seals are gone.

Easy start is your friend, i found it helped with bikes and karts with similar problems and kept it running enough to keep the carb sucking the fuel. Has it not been started for a while?

Take the airbox off, and see is it worse or better.

Stop towing it up and down the road, its not a tractor!
If its not ****ed now it soon will be!

Did you try any of the ideas posted here?

Single cylinder quads are simple, its not difficult to diagnose problems but you need to be methodical!

what else can i do i have most of the sensors isolated its not like most raptors that have a button to push and the quad turns over and starts and a dash on the handle bars all them tings are gone its old its 01 or 02 and previous owner done a hole lot of messing with the wires i have it all back as write as i can see from a diagrame i got on the internet
