It sounds like your fuel float shutoff in the carb. may be sticking
in the open position and letting gas flood the air intake area.
If you take off the air filter do you see a puddle of gas?

If the needle valve is the culprit take the carb. off the motor
and apart. All it takes is a very tiny piece of grit to cause
this to happen (speaking from too much experience).
