carby help on 50cc lifan 4 speed

my carby keeps leaking i cleaned it and it stops leaking until i go into a field and go over a few bumps and then it starts leaking out the overflow? any help? is the float sticking?

yeh sounds like it. more than likely the needle isnt seating properly. or your float could have a hole in it. if you are able to adjust yoru float height, do that first, raise it up a little bit.

i checked the float for any holes and it seems all clear i don't see any ways to adjust the float is their any type of oil i could use in a carby ? without it mixing with the petrol? all the jets seem spotless let it soak in carb cleaner as well and also got a air compressor and still no luck.. it only starts leaking after going over a few bumps.
