Kevin,
Try turning your gas off and unhook the line at the petcock (gots to be real fast here) and then let her run dry. Just to be sure undo the line at the carb.

If you still find a wet spot it ain't the float needle because the level can't get high enough to come out the jet tubes due to no fuel introduction. It's probably a gasket or one of the jets, hopefully not a porous float body.

Or it could be the gas left in the manifoldfalling back out of suspension. Picture the Coyote when the cliff breaks away underfoot in the roadrunner cartoons.

Have fun and don't use matches,
Glad to hear you found your noise problem,
GW


PS. It was Snyder's book.
