It sounds like your carb float is not shutting off the fuel. Your float may have sunk, or it could be a problem with the needle valve & seat. If it's a copper float, take it off and see if there is gas in it. I fixed mine by drilling a tiny hole, dumping the gas out, and resoldering all the joints and the tiny hole I drilled.
