I have a Marvel Schebler TSX-809 carburetor that is BADLY flooding. I have taken the carburetor apart multiple times, installed a basic kit with new gaskets, and tried various adjustments to no avail. If I crank the tractor and stop cranking, lots of gas pours out the air intake. If I let the carb sit with the gas line open for about 20 mins, gas soaks out between the 2 halves of the carb, particularly badly on the end by the air intake. When I'm able to get it to start (which is a challenge in itself) I have to constantly play with the choke to get it to stay running and it only seems to run on at most 3 cylinders. I'll put a list of things I've tried below but I'm at wits end and am about ready to just send the carburetor off somewhere to get rebuilt. I'm a college student so there's normally a few weeks between weekends when I can get home and work on it, so I'm probably forgetting some stuff that I've done to it. Any new ideas would be appreciated. This is on a john deere 1010.
Here's what I can remember doing:
-Taken carb completely apart and soaked (multiple times)
-Replaced gaskets and installed a new needle, needle seat, and float
-Adjusted float per the instruction manual and tractor service manual
-Swapped out the upper half of the carburetor with another one I had in case of a crack
