Exhaust pissing out gas...

Okay, so today I removed my muffler to try and confirm that it is the muffler that is shot on my lawn tractor (Still haven't fixed it from this past January), and immediately when I started cranking the engine (spark plug wire removed) gas started pouring like a faucet each time it did the exhaust stroke. Is this normal? I have never had an issue with my tractor running rough. I do notice, however, that when the engine turns over, it runs rough for about 3 seconds, meanwhile spitting gas out of the muffler. After that it's perfectly fine. Could this be an issue with my carb's float?

Yes, or your needle and seat need replaced. Either way your carb is bypassing.
