I start the motor and the top carb floods up through the needle valve after bowl is full. Have replaced needle and float kit.
 
Sometimes the needle and float replacement parts aren't the same parts.
Measure the needle against the old.
The float does it have a tab for adjusting?

The float does have tab and we are running original needle as the new one was bigger and spear had some kind of spring system on it.
 
Picture 009.jpgPicture 011.jpgMake sure the float and carb is level when the carb is turned upside down.
The carb when it's right side up the float should almost touch the center post.
