You can do it!

It sounds like the float or float bowl metering valve is to blame. The valve is included in a rebuild kit.

Once you break open the carb you will see it is a piece of cake. Soak it in carb cleaner and then blow out with compressed air. Then reassemble... The tough part is tuning it again.
