Default 2003 ez go gas coming out side of carb

so my 2003 ez go gas cart has been slow to start lately
And I started smelling gas, then yesterday noticed gas on the ground
I thought the hose feeding the carb was leaking
Bought new hose and replaced em all

Now the gas seems to be spitting out of one of the little vent tube holes on either side of where the fuel line connects to the carb




Any ideas what is going on?
Carb rebuild needed?
Is there carb rebuild kits available out there?

Sorry that picture is so big

Took the carb off and I'm not sure a rebuild is even possible

Pull the carb and clean it. Float might be letting fuel past. Also change the fuel lines.

Thank you
Glad I had a new can of carb cleaner, almost used the whole thing
Finally swapped out the main jet to a #90, when I bought the cart it had the 6000+ altitude jet in it and I live at about 830

Any tips on filling the float?

Battery died cranking it before it fired off
Put it back together

I meant needle and seat might be letting fuel by because it was dirty.

Ethanol fuel will do that as well as eat the fuel lines

Well this is weird
Put it all back together, charged the battery and it doesn't seem to want to fire off
Spray a little starting fluid and it fires, but doesn't seem to want to suck fuel through

Gunna pull the carb again and pull
All the parts in there, needle valve, nozzle, and maybe the pilot jet too and clean em all out

I'm guessing just spray carb cleaner in the hose connections on it?
Not about taking it apart
