i have a 1981 Rx-7 GLS with the 12a 1.1L 4bbl carb. Rebuilt the carb, new floats, floats set correctly, 3 1/2 lbs. fuel pressure, fuel is over site glass, dumps fuel into secondary's when idling. Did the same thing before we rebuilt the carb. I need help ASAP please. thanks

Check the float levels again. Make sure the floats aren't filling with fuel. Make sure the floats actually close off the needle seats when the floats are fully raised. It sounds like too much fuel is getting into the float bowls.
