Leaking from the over flow pipe as in flooding?
If so check float height and as said that the needle valve is working and not sticking.

Hello Jarno

I know that ...
For me it was the seal of the float chamber #-o

If it's coming from the overflow pipe check your float needle again.

I had this problem with them sticking and you could take them out and give them a clean, but would start pissing fuel out again after a while. I ended up replacing them and have not had this problem since.
