The petrol tap may have stuck open and the float needle may also be stuck open due to standing for a while. Just make sure its cheap enough in case its something else.

Do you mean the air filter?
My Baotian BT50QT-9 would not start. It could be coaxed into life by twisting the throttle a bit. However, this flooded the carb and the petrol poured back down into the air filter.
Got itt checked out and it was dirt in the carb. All fine now.
Good luck,

I had dirt in my carb too-created a back pressure & filled up my air filter with gas.
