Why is gas coming out of this little hose behind the motor?And from that little hole on left side of me toe when I turn the fuel peacock to on?

That is the drain hose for the carburetor float bowl. Looks like yours was either left open or vibrated loose... turn the screw clockwise on that hose until it stops leaking.

If it’s the hose on the bottom of the carb it’s because the float inside is stuck open. Try taking the carb bowl off and clean it.

Thanks for the tips,it’s not screwed on it’s held by a little clip I checked to make sure it’s tight though.if I have to take the carb bowl off I need a little instruction to make sure I do it correctly...Thanks again

Ok,so I let it run with the fuel petcock off until it shut itself off.then I turned the petcock back to on and no more leaking.maybe it’s like DarthRacer said and I needed to let that access run out or something but I just drove it around for like 10/15 minutes and no more gas running out hope that’s it for that chapter.

The screw is on the bottom of the float bowl... not the hose itself. Just follow the leaky hose ... it will be the closest screw to the hose... the screw goes through the float bowl in the direction of the hose.

Yep found it,seemed pretty tight though,gave it a quarter turn still.rode on and off for another bout 40 minutes or so then let it run a little,checked the lines again and no issues.Thanks for the help guys;I’m learning as I go.This is my first Atv,but I plan on doing any fixing and tinkering myself..so I really appreciate the support system.
