Hello. The most frequent problem would be that your floats are stuck. To fix this you need to clean your carburetor. To do this first remove the plastics the seat and the gas tank. To take off the gas tank you need to disconnect the black tube going into the carberetor. Next disconnect the big black tube going out the back of the carberetor. This is a good time to loom and make sure your choke and throttle are working. Next undo your throttle needle by unscrewing. It will pop right off. Lastly undo the bolts and pull off the carberetor. Now that its off there are three screws. Undo those and you will see to black plastic things. Those are the floats. Make sure that they are not sticky if they are you need to use carb cleaner and clean it out.

Busted diaphragm in the fuel pump. Replace the fuel pump to solve this problem. Can also be a carburetor problem such as a leaking needle valve and seat or a pinhole in the carburetor float. This would require disassembly and rebuilding the carburetor.
