Thats the end of the throttle shaft, so it is flooding.

I would guess that the fload/needle has an issue. Pull the top off the float chamber and see if the float still floats, and if so, have a look at the needle and seat. It may just have a bit of crap in it.

Tim.

If you have a filter in there and your getting chunks big enough to clog the valve, check the fuel lines, they may be breaking up on the inside and any hose after the filter is suspect.

Maybe fit a second filter in the engine bay before the carb.
