"I was told by a mech earlier

"I was told by a mech earlier this year (when I still had Solex carbs

) that the needle/seat valve can cause symptoms like yours if the unit is sticking. What happens is the rising float does not totally turn off the flow of fuel to the bowl and, at idle rpms, it floods over. At high rpm an open needle/seat valve is a normal situation. Worth while checking."
