Then you just have a bad carburetor. Replace the carb with one already rebuilt from the factory.

It was either done wrong or the housing is damaged and they didn't know it. The carb is bad.

Maybe your not explaining the problem correctly but the only place fuel can come out of the carb is through the carb itself.
Now, are you getting a backfiring or something like that?
