Sounds like what Harold is saying is right-on. Check your float LEVEL,and DROP. Level should be 1-9/32. Can't remember exactly what the drop level spec. is. That was my problem. After adjusting for the third time,I finally got it (level), right,(2nd carburetor). Did you soak the accelerator pump leather with oil,prior to installation,to expand the leather? Did you check your vacuum,(with gauge),as you adjusted your fuel/air mixture? That makes a BIG difference, as well. If neither one of those remedies the problem,check for vacuum leaks around the carburetor halves,(Mine was warped,so I found another one,and rebuilt it),the base of the carb,and the base of the intake. Hope this helps.
