Carb issue

So I’ve been still having some carb issues, eye know everyone says not to adjust the float levels but when eye first rebuilt eye adjusted them to 16 mm but I’ve been having flooding issues still. The side that goes to the acel pump is even in the sight glass but the other side nearest the radiator is always reallly high. It doesn’t flood over and do the most

things can get bent, adjust to spec. I have to ask, is there a story behind your quirky "eye" ?

yea eye did adjust them both to spec but one side still has a problem with over filling. It doesn’t overflow out into the engine but it gets really filled up. Would that just be a sticking needle? I’m sure my floats are still good, didn’t use the new needle seats but eye used new needles. She will sound like she wants to kick over everyonce in a while but for the most part no start :/ checked all the ignition stuff and timing and that’s all good, I’m ******* stumped now though. And as to why eye write “eye” vs “I”, it’s just something I’ve been doing for a while, picked it up from my favorite artist way back in the day and it’s stuck ever since
