My bike won't start

Hey, I have a fairly inexpensive 49cc pocket bike that was a gift from a friend.

It is a pull start, and I can't get it to turn over. When I do try to start it, there is a clear tube coming from the carburetor that leaks fuel. I get sparks from the spark plug, but it just won't start.

Can anyone help me? If you don't know, do you know of any links which would help me fix my bike?

Thanks

your carby must be cleaned out, especially the opposite end of the float assembly where the tiny white plastic needle sits.

How about givng some links to the poor bloke. Easy for U to comment " check previous posts. Some of these forum members are raw at this stuff and need help from others.
