I'm having trouble getting my rebuilt turbo engine to run -- it will 
start but won't idle and fuel is spilling out of the top of the 
carburetor. 
.......................... 

I would appreciate any suggestions any of you may have regarding setting 
the float.  I'm pretty sure I don't have any vacuum leaks -- I just went 
through the whole setup from exhaust logs to the intake cross-over.

============================ 
  
I like to pressure test needles and seats with air pressure applied by mouth. 
Turn the carb top etc upside down so the weight of the float  is sealing the needle. 
  
Ones that leak air are damaged or dirty.
