okay heres whats going on .while idling I took off the gas line to carb and my idle went up so I gave it gas and she was fine.i kept the rpms up and it was fine.rode it a few minutes shut it off still fine.so my question is it sounds like my bowl is filling up and flooding it but what would cause this(float valve)?

Either that or your idle mixture is too rich. Try adjusting the a/f screw on the carb. And you can adjust the idle speed screw as well.

I leaned it down a little and it runs great but its smoking a good amount even for a two stroke.when you lean the mixture doesn't the idle go down?

Nope, leaner idle = faster idle to a point.
If your carb is the same design as the one on my Zuma, turning the A/F screw in is richer and out is leaner. Try 1.5 or 1.75 turns out and see how it runs.

In is richer, out is leaner. It's an air screw, so the further out it is, the more air gets by and therefore leaner. The more closed it is less air and more fuel so richer.
