Super A carb dripping

Posted by Al Freeberg on June 13, 2004 at 20:12:41 from (208.42.12.35):

I purchased a Super A that has a dripping carb. The carb drips so bad, the previous owner pulled the bottom of the air cleaner. I've put a kit in it and adjusted the float level to spec. Still leaks. No foreign matter in the needle and seat. I've rebuilt a couple of hundred carbs, most worked fine the first time, some required a couple of adjustments to work correctly. Am I missing something here that is causing this dripping? If you move the float manually, it shuts off with the gas line connected. The float is not rubbing on the bowl, and the float moves freely. I'm about to junk this and search for another one. Any advice?
