If you have disconnected or plugged the return line? You have to have a well working and clean float valve. Sometimes the filter passes grit big enough to hold the float valve open some. Could also try bending the float arm a touch (very little down) a slightly low float bowl level (1/64-1/32) helps some, especially on hills. Make sure the top gasket is whole, with no cracks or tears. The gasket gets real thin between the float bowl and the carb mouth. Plugging the overflow (if present) will also cause problems, surging and flooding on occasion.[addsig]
