    clean the carb…

    adjust everything & before mounting it blow air with your mouth on the fuel inlet …….. air should flow into the carb body

    turn it upside down and redo the blow test… air SHOULD NOT pass the inlet needle. if it does that is why fuel is spilling out of the carb when you squeeze the bulb

    find out why…. maybe the float is snagging …btw you do have a good float ?
