Sportjet120 Carb Problem

[industriallift]

I have a Sportjet120. Recently rebuilt.I have fuel coming out of bottom carb up through the main nozzle and out the front of the carb at cranking speed and continues to about have throttle. Carb has been checked. Float and seat are working properly. Fuel pressure is correct.I had this problem prior to rebuild so it's not something that has occurred since rebuild.Any ideas would be appreciated.

If you are sure the float height is correct you may want to check to see if the float has a hole in it. It may be sinking in the gas instead of floating. If you take the carb apart again you may want to set the float inverted to 1/2 inch instead of 13/32 inch.
