Follow up after taking the carb apart for the 19th time.........

Contrary to popular assumptions. This dripping off of the accelerator pump linkage was NOT due to warped carb bodies. But rather a piece of schmootz migrated past the inline filter and settled on the needle tip. Holding the needle open enough to over fill the float bowl and run gas out of the linkage port. I saw a fuel stain (E10) on the linkage about 1/4” above the casting.
