the repair shop I took it to rebuilt the card, and it still floods.

Seat in carb could be bad. Did they pressure test carb?

Heck try a known new carb bet that will tell ya. ;)  I had to do that on a saw a few times.

 I have Dolmar 116si that floods just sitting there. Its like the tank pressurizes and pushes gas past the carb directley into the muffler. When I try to start it gas shoots out the muffler. Rebuilt the carb but it still floods.  I have at a shop works on chainsaws and he can't figure it out.  Anybody have any suggestions?
