float is possibly stuck, or you may just need to tighten the carb and the fuel lines.

clean the carb is your best bet. make sure you have an air filter or it will not run right.

sometimes you can free up the float by rapping on the side of the carb with a rubber hammer and don't have to take it apart.If that doesnt work clean the carb and you should be fine
