Pumping gas into intec 20hp crankcase

[ba_50]

Just bought this used mower and cleaned the carburetor. It is still pumping gas into cc.
Needle tip looked ok. Does it need a new one? Thanks

Could be the needle, or a hole in the float.
Does it have a fuel pump?
Also post the model number. It will be stamped on the valve cover.

The float doesn't leak but with some force the needle let's air through whether upside down or right side up. Must be the needle or a burr
