Hello, I am new to the blast...
Just picked up a 2007 blast for the wife.
It has been sitting for a few months.
I started it up with some starter fluid and the carb poured out fuel...
I removed the carb, took the bowl off and found the float need was stuck open.
I cleaned everything and now have no overflow, But, Now it wont start until I cover the throat of the carb, It will start but not idle....
Any thoughts?

Flip the needle jet (collar) over so it sticks up into the carb throat about 1/4".
