Help, my bike won't start

So when I try to start the bike it turns over normal and initially sounded like the engine was gonna kick on. However I found that some gas started leaking into the airbox through the carbs.
All the hoses are routed properly, I used that guide that's on the gstwin main page. Buddha checked out the carbs and okayed them. I'm going to change the plugs and check the wiring going to them. Anybody have any suggestions besides?

There are lots of thread results in the main forum, go there and do a search.

I just had a problem with gas overflowing, and some of it was shooting into the airbox. My fix was I had to replace the needle seats in the carb. The seal was not good and it caused fuel to overflow and leak out the overflow and some into the airbox. That was MY fix, but it could be a number of things.

Yeah sorry about posting this in the wrong forum. I was on a roll with getting this bike back together and I needed some assistance when I got a road block.

But I fixed it! For those with the same issue I had (turn key, lights come on, bike turns over but won't start) Try replacing the ignition control module. Its the first thing I tried after some research and the bike started up instantly.
