A leaker

Hi All ! B&S Flo Jet 2 piece, leaks out of the hole past the chock plate, is that because the float is set wrong? seems these carbs are a real problem, although the one on my 6R6 seems to be working fine.
Geo??

It leaks because the float valve is not cutting off the fuel supply and that is regardless of where the final exit point is .
