Keeps flooding when i try to start it and spraying gas out of the carburator.
SOURCE: Riding mower fails to get gas fast enough to keep it running; floods when off.
sounds like you better check your oil level to make sure this engine isnt overfull now with fuel - if your tank drained, the needle and seat may be bad or else the brass float is bad - get back to me and well get it running right
SOURCE: gas leak

It sounds like the inlet needle seat is not closing all the way,allowing fuel to overfill the carburetor.The inlet needle seat may have dirt in it.You will have to remove the carburetor bowl and check for dirt or debris in bowl,if so remove the float assembly and check for a peice of dirt between the inlet needle and seat.If there is none you may have to replace the carburetor or rebuild it with a carburetor kit.You should also chang the engine oil because the overfilled carburetor drains to the crankcase,filling it with fuel,check the oil level and see if it is high,that would indicate fuel is in the oil.Hope this helps
SOURCE: uneven grass cutting
I have seen dull blades, blades not installed right and an un-level deck cause that.
Hope this helps.
