ok when we tip the quad up on the grab bar gas pours out & also when we wheelie. I had a 300 before & that didn't happen to me. My son has an 04 300ex & this is our problem . Also on another note I bought a toy hauler & I don't want gas all on the floor. What helpful info do your have that might solve my issue? Thanx , greatly appreicated

Dont worry, it is supposed to drain when tipped up or wheeling.

It's coming out of the overflow/vent tubes.

If it didn't drain, your bowl would get too full and excess fuel would be sent into the intake.

When tipping it up to maintain or wash, turn the gas off.

Some quads vent tubes drain into different locations. Some even drain into the airbox.
