The carb is probably flooding due to either a problem with the float or a non sealing needle valve. As you have had the tank out and back in, the needle valve is favourite. A 94 will only leak if the float level is too high (bad float or needle valve) or the power valve is bad.

It might be worth fitting a filter between the fuel pipe and pump for a while until things settle down.
