Here is a cool tip I learned a while back on these tractors.
To check the actual float level, insure the shutoff valve is closed under the tank. Remove the bottom plug or drain plug from the carb. Find a hose barb fitting that will screw into the carb bowl. Get a piece of clear tubing long enough to loop from the drain plug up above the top of the carb. Turn on the shutoff valve under the tank. Observe the actual fuel level in the carb based on the level in the clear hose.
It should be around a 1/8"-1/4" below bowl gasket. If it is higher or keeps going up, look for a float that is taking on gas, a piece of debris in the float, or a float pivot rod that has slid out and allowing the float to drop.
I have found that the Tisco kits for the H carbs have a float rod that is too short and allows it to slide to the side enough to fall off the other side and the float will become cocked in the bowl. You may have a similar issue on your M carb.
