300ex carb leaking

[blyze]

I just took apart my carb on my 300ex to replace the main jet, i also took apart the top plate and needle looking for the main jet. after i put it back together when i turn on the gas, small amounts of gas drips out of the carb leak hoses. Is there something i missed?

Sometimes the float can get hung up when you turn the gas back on after disassembly. I always tap the side of the bowl as I turn the gas back on. Or maybe you bent the tab on the float that holds the needle valve and its not seating.
