No! Just look down the throats with the carbs complete & the air cleaners off. You are right, there shouldn't be gas running in after it is shut off but there is a residual pressure even when shut off. If the pressure is too high or you have dirt in the needle & seat it will continue to drip in to the throat. Float level is measured by the distance from the top of the air horn with the gasket installed to the bottom of the float with the air horn held upside down. Like shown on the instrucktion sheet. The level in the bowl after you remove the top is immaterial.


They say money can't buy happiness. It can buy old Chevy trucks though. Same thing.
