And now when I´m done I put the original stuff on again and the carb leaks
fuel from the bowl vent ( below the choke ). WTF???

Pull the bolw and clean it out. Its pretty easy to do

Needle and seat may just need to be sprayed out.

You may have to pull the aircleaner and back plate depending on what you have. Drain the bowl by removing the bolt in the bottom then remove the 4 screws and be careful not to loose the little blue oring that goes over the nozzle. Clean it out with some cleaner and put it back together.
