    Sounds like dirt stuck in float valve, preventing it from shutting off.

    Pull float bowl off offending carb, take float out, unscrew float valve and clean it out.
    Re-install and test.

    My first suggestion is to be a little more specific about the problem

    Theres 4 carbs and alot of places fuel could be leaking from.

    Sounds like its time for the inevitable carby overhaul

    As simidau suggests , Litetek have a complete kit for the whole carby

    Strip them down and clean them out properly ..... look online or here on the correct procedure to do it the right way.
    Theres more than 8 jets for starters .... theres 12 just on the jet housings.
    And as Dave mentions , a float could be stuck open .... I found 2 granite boulders in 1 of mine.

    Have a look here and you will see a few of us (including me) are in the process right now.
