Did you service the carb…. ??
the float must be adjusted to be level with the casing when held upside down.
The float must FLOAT…. is it fuel logged ?? if so… dry it out sand lightly and recoat with crazy glue or airplane dope readjust to be parallel
If the float is in bad shape… replace it
do a blown test on the carb inlet fuel port before rebolting the carb
right side up air goes in the fluel inlet
upside down…. no air should pass the inlet needle
