The rear carb started dripping fuel this time. Looks like i need to adjust the float valve there. Would that do it?

Before continuing, replace the leaking float valve. Pump rods are 80mm when set correctly.

Id love to Jim, but i cant...

Tried 3 different valves, and all 3 sizes of the shims combined and it still drips, but only when the engine is running. It stops dripping immediately when i shut it off. Any ideas?

float screws are solid by the way.
