My GTR quit running last night. I'm certain is was a fuel issue. I had not drained the fuel sinse I bought it from the preveous owner who told me it had been sitting.

I drained the fuel tank, removed the float bowl, and the throttle slide, blew that out as well as the in line filter. Put it all back together and fired it up. it runs while I'm on the accelerator. If I leave it to idle, it will cut off after about 30 seconds, and the overflow tube from the float bowl, begins to drip fuel.

Any suggestions? I'm gonna go remove the float bwl again and make sure the float isn't stuck.

The other thing is that the idle screw has to be all the way in to hold an idle.

I think you are right about the float being stuck.
