Knock the bowl...The float could be stuck...Thats the first thing I would check...

[burgiebird]

Make sure you put the floats in correct. I have done that.

it was brand new from sudco so i would hope there in right

bs,
Mine did the same thing from Sudco, check and set the float level, and check the needle valve for trash or anything that will keep it from closing.

floats im guessing... my blaster had the same problem..

so where should the float level be at just dont want to screw up the new carb

[Skully]

bs,
Take off the bowl, hold it upside down, and the top of the float should be level with the base of the carb body when the plunger on the needle valve just touches. Bend the tab on the float that touches the needle valve to adjust up or down until it quits leaking. It might take you a few tries to get it right, don't bend the tab a whole lot as you adjust it.
