There could be dirt in them that is stopping the float needle from closing
all the way.It is a case of taking them off and cleaning them.

Doubt it if they havn't been touched, more like what Paddy says, a bit of crap in the needle valve. Wink

Yes if they do it properly.

Its unusual for dirt to get through the tank, it might be worth considering an inline filter.
