did you ever put a new carb kit in it? With new needle valve? If your old one is worn it wont seat properly. Those are simple carbs you can get them at a lawn mower store or on-line.

Yes, I did order the new carb kit that came with new needle valve but this did not solve the problem. I have poured over this carb and I believe the needle seat must be worn out or maybe there is supposed to be a gasket down in the seat that is missing?

No gasket. I went to the manual and it shows that the needle seat is removeable and can be replaced with one in the kit

Thanks for the links! From the diagram I have on my Carb there is a gasket that sits just below the seat. I went and bought a gasket material and hopefully I can make a small enough gasket to fit in there.

Here are the pictures from the manual showing the gasket

Its a very thing either nylon or red gasket but thats not gonna change anything. So your kit didnt have a new seat and gasket in it?

Nope the kit does not come with the seat and gasket, only the needle valve which I did replace.

click on the ebay link I posted with the carb kit. It should have the seat and gasket in that kit.

Here are the pictures of the carb. I tried it again and it's just flooding out the engine.
