Dolmar 116si flooding

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?

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.
