You might want to have a closer look at your float valve. If it's stuck open or damaged fuel will continue to flow into the bowl and out the overflow. Also make sure your float height is within spec, it would take a lot for these symptoms but you could have accidentally bent the tang way out of wack.
also make sure that that little orange thing above the main jet is installed. float should be between 20-21.5mm. Play with it alittle and make sure its working ok...
