OK so you have the opposite problem.
Not enough gas/ not rich enough.
Still could be the choke setting for altitude.
Or
Carb problem - Dirty jet, worn float valve/seat, or leaky float.
Solution is a carb rebuild kit or new/rebuilt carb.
The kit will have the new jet, float, float valve and gaskets, plus float gauge
and instructions.
Clean the carb before rebuilding with lacquer thinner and spray the internal passages with carb cleaner. Let dry before rebuilding.
30Min job after removal.
