Fuel leak I have a 2006 Yamaha Venture, When I went to start it, gas came running out the front. I think the gas was coming out a overflow hose? It ran great when I put it away last winter,
The carb/s are flooding , you will have to check the float pin and the float, a good clean with compressed air should do the job, check too the fuel line and the fuel filter.
Hope this helps!

2006, it is well insured, do you smoke, accidents happen :>D
I was hoping to find a gas line schematic. I didn't find one, but there is enough evidence that the gas lines are an issue with 'quick connect connectors'. Take a look at the videos.
stuck floats!...purchase a can of Sea Foam from any Autostore pour in about a third of a can per every 2 gals of fuel.. and then you must ride it for a least 30 miles to let it work through the fuel system, also obviously check the main fuel line hose feed for secure connections to the carbs..i had a bad fuel leak once and it was pouring out fast, it ended up being a bad rubber gasket going one side of the fuel tee connection.
what that is,it is an overflow hose so you don't flood the engine.close off your fuel when you are not running and that should fix it UNLESS it leaks while you are running.than that is a different issue.
sounds like you have either a stuck float or a needle and seat leaking your carb is overflowing and coming out overflow tube. could try adding a carb cleaner additive to your fuel but chances are you will have remove and clean carbs or replace needle and seat jim
