i would say either the float needle is sticking or the float needle seat is worn or the float has a hole in it or possible the needle seat has an oring on it that has gone hard and its leaking past outside of the needle seat.does the plug smell of petrol or is it just black as it could be burning alot of oil and fouling the plug up not that likely but possible.
