If the float dosen't have a hole in it, the needle valve shut shut off basically with the top of the carb float parrell with the top of the carb. You should also make sure the needle and seat does shutoff. Did you replace them?

yes i replaced the needle and the brass fitting and the seal on it. I adjusted the float slightly and it doesnt leak as bad but its still leaking. I got good power but it kinda runs like crap now.
also smokes and burns my eyes a little so its to rich?
