We did a mates last month. Only thing that got it fixed was a new needle.
I drop a ball bearing in the seat and tap it to ensure the hole is round. But do take your tap out and clean any tank grit. A hair will hold the valve open. |
I have had good luck chucking up a cotton swab (Q-Tip), dipped in polishing compound (tooth paste in a pinch) into my electric drill. You can use this to polish the carb seat mating surface so the needle's Viton tip has a smooth surface to mate with or (with which to mate if you are opposed to ending sentences with prepositions) ;-)

We replaced the seal/ball bearing tap after he'd tried this trick.
