Do not run the motor any more, as running while something is wrong ( like with the Carb) to that degree of richness will only serve to wash out the rings and ware out the cylinder walls in short order!

If you ask me your Carb needs to get gone thru , if your lucky it's just today's gas that has gone bad and is blocking some passages and or hanging up some part.

I have also seen new brass floats go bad at times, not a lot ,but a few.
