I’ve also seen a main gasket (that goes between the 2 halves of the carb body) get swollen. Some would suggest that being from the Non-ethanol free gas. The gasket swelled up and was preventing the float from going all the way up, and would flood.
I have the new carb kit installed and yes the old gasket was pretty stiff and deformed inside the carb, i;m hoping once i have everything installed it should be good, we’ll see what happens
