Ok people I have something strange going on. I have had this bbk for a month and doing great, then I noticed it leaking gas out the breather box, So no big deal, I cleaned the carb. Then I changed the carb and I know its not the carb that's doing this. I did change out a bad stator with a used one that I know was good or use to be. I have spark and all, so could it be a cdi or stator making it seem like its a carb problem? this is driving me up the wall.

What exactly do you mean by "leaking gas out the breather box"?

First i would be sure the floats adjusted properly and the needles not leaking. 2nd check your intake valve setting, too tight it will burp pressure back into the carb on compression stroke...a burnt intake valve seat will do the same, 3rd make sure your not low on compression. A low compression engine usually shows signs of flooding. You should be able to kick the crank over slowly and still feel a good "egg" or hard bump at TDC.

That could be a bad petcock, but if your carb float is working right it should stop it anyways.
