Shut off the fuel! Remove the bowl. clean the bowl out with carb spray and set it aside. Look at the float. It should be hanging down at an angle. put a coffe can or pan under the carb and turn on the fuel a little. Fuel should run out of the area where the float pivots. Now while it is running out, lift the float gently with one finger till it gently stops. All fuel flow should stop. (just like a toilet tank float). If very gentle pressure stops the flow, I would put it back together and give it a try. if the float is heavy, it could have gasoline inside it, if it does, it is in need of replacement unless you are a very acopmlished solderer. If it is dry inside and the fuel still comes out when lifted, the needle and seat need to be replaced. The needle will probably have a Viton (rubber) tip. The old one may not. Be sure the little spring is correctly hooked on the needle, and the push plate of the float. Next is float level. The specification is in the info in the kit. it can be done installed especially if yoy measure the distance of the old float, and get in mind how it needs to be to shut off the fuel. Jim
