O sorry i forgot you have the leaky carb ok now 1st you check the shut off needle for any damage same for the seat if everything checks out ok then you adjust the float by the book.Ps starting 3 thread on the same problem that does not help you.

If the float is good you do not have to change it. if there is damage on the shot off needle or the seat that is what you have to fix. or you might just have to adjust the float
