First, check to see if gas is dripping into the end carb throats when idling. If it is, you have a bad float or leaking needle/seat. Sometimes, I find the seat is not tight in the carb airhorn, allowing gas to bypass and fill the bowl too full.

Not likely you have a vacuum leak if it ran awhile ago, but not now. To check, put your hand over the end carbs one at a time to see if idle changes. If it does, the throttle plates on that carb are not tightly shut.

Keep us updated and we'll get this fixed pronto!!
