hello, I have a TAO 125 quad the carburetor is flooding and it seems to be a good time to change the carburetor. Any recommendations?

I've had this carb flood also. I pulled the bowl off and cleaned the float needle. I also set the float height. Took care of the issue. I would try this first before installing a new carb

hello, the carb bowl is riveted on thought it was not serviceable?

Are you sure those are rivets, most are screws with no slot. A Dremmil tool with a cutoff wheel can be used to make a slot.

YES those are screws witht he heads broke off... you can slot the heads to remove with screw driver,,, alittle work and be CARFULL... or buy a carb.. if you hav e the time and alittle skill .. then go but some screws to install... use premium fuel. then ALMOST no trouble...

hello, I was able to get the bowl off,cleaned it out, put it back on and it flooded at once. I took the bowl off again lowered the float . gas stayed in. I will have to see if the carb runs out of gas.
