Green Magic runs… after 15 months… but puking fuel.

I charged the battery for 4 hours.
I was then just able to start Green Magic and get it running!
Unfortunately the carbs kept running and running an puking pouring fuel everywhere.
I kept shutting off the fuel petcock to stop the pouring fuel and kept the motor running, when fuel was getting very lean in the clear gas tube I installed I would open the petcock again to keep motor running, and fuel would pour out of carbs in a second.
Very annoying and troubling. Fuel was everywhere.
I finally was able to narrow it down to the third carb from the petcock side of bike (right as sitting #3) that was pouring fuel in a huge stream. I guess the valve seat needle must be sticking there and won’t unstick with heat or knocking the side of the bowl doesn’t work either 🙁
