Would/could i have a fuel pump issue even if the pump was pumping gas?? Could it pump gas and be also leaking into the cases?

Pretty sure a messed up pump can flow right through the pulse line into the cases.

Pump seems to be ok ......took the carb apart again and the floats in the carb that were giving me trouble were cracked and most have gotten soaked once the bowls filled with fuel. Really nice machine i dont know if that high output CDI does the trick but i was riding on 2 feet of snow last night like it was nothing keeping up with my buddies on revs and RX1's.
