sounds like you are running it too rich. Try leaning out with the mixture screw, but if that isn't enough you'll need to get a smaller jet

Try taking the carb apart and cleaning it up a little bit... like sparky said, it does sound like your float is getting stuck. Cleaning to carb should fix you right up!

Yeah, if that's all you've done, then the float is stuck, I'm suprised it started though. Also check to make sure it isn't upsidedown or bent, I've seen both cause similar effects
