When my bike is running Gas and oil comes out the top hose that come from the eng. to the air filter.
Dose this mean the the head gasket is bad. The bike will run but the gas and oil mix just pores out of this hose at a good flow.

DANGER
If a mixture of gas and oil is flowing out of this hose turn off the engine and DO NOT START the engine until this problem is repaired!

Hello Clayton and welcome to the forum. Gas and oil do not mix in 4 stroke engines. Change the oil immediately. Make sure you have a large enough container to catch all the gas and oil. Change the oil filter. I would use a cheap oil and change it again to clean out all the gas. You will need to find out how the gas is getting into the crankcase and repair that. Most likely you'll have to replace the gas tank petcock and rebuild the carb rack.
