i have a 54 johnson seahorse 10 hp that I picked up the other day. it has only a few hours run time since fully seviced but has been sitting for a couple years since as well. after changing the plugs she fired right up! i took it to the water yesturday and gas was streaming from the carb overflow it transit and didnt stop . if the tank is conected it is just gushin' I would assume it is the float. are they difficult,to get to, could this just need a cleaning and reinstal? also on the first pull at the lake, the pull cord broke any advise on installing that would be great as well, thanks T email @ troyfrench@aol.com

Hi Johnson<br />You are correct about your float situation. Good news is most of the time this is an easy fix, same goes for the pull cord. If you will post your email address I will send you the info to make the repairs easier.
