One other thing on leaking carby's.
Make sure you have the new Black floats. The Old white ones ( Not good for ethanol ) on mine would not hold at 1.5 lbs. of pressure. I changed the needle to the new black tip and it made no difference. I put the carb in a clear plastic bowl and set the fuel level with the bottom off the Carb. I pressurized it using a very fine calibrated gauge and it would leak profusely at less than 2 psi.
The black floats fixed the problem.

With all this talk about the float needle, let's remember that there
are black-tipped needles (the rubber end is black) and needles with
silver, gold, and *black* springs, (or at least a silver, gold, or
black colored spring end, which is a code for the strength of the
spring within the needle) and make sure you know which one you're
referring to.
