Carburetor dumping fuel at idle

Hey everyone I have a 1980 Toyota pickup and I’ve been having an issue with the carburetor dumping fuel while idling which is causing it to die. Anyone have any ideas on what would cause it to constantly be leaking fuel?

Float level set too high or junk in the needle and seat. Time to have a look inside.
