Full fuel glass.

I have a carbed 84. My fuel glass is full and the truck is running rich. Anyone have experience with this?

but, you definitely have a float problem. 3 things, either the float needle valve is stuck open, preventing the fuel to stop flowing, or the float itself has become saturated with fuel preventing buoyancy, or the float, which controls fuel level, is mis-adjusted.
