I think this rebuilt carburetor has a problem also. This morning went out and found a drop of fuel hanging from the bottom bolt on the carburetor followed this back to the intake and all the way up to the Jets. So as suggested the float valve is probably not holding back the fuel. Will check that and probably replace the fuel shut-off petcock for grins. Definitely not lacking in info here. You all have helped tremendously.
