I have a 2000 700 Summit that has the DPM on it. The last trip out gas started coming up the 4 hoses from the carbs. This caused a extremly rich situation. It was all we could do to get back to the trailer. Any ideas on what caused this to all of a sudden start. All the hoses were changed at the beginning of the season so they are not loose.

something is in the needle and seat.. pull carbs.. take floats out and clean the needle and seat ( also called float valve ).. when they get held open the fuel goes up the hoses to the dpm..
