Engine stalls upon braking

No booster. Manual brakes. Rusty, I tried a few different settings. Before I posted this thread, I thought the float was too low and starving for fuel. I readjusted it slightly higher, got the same result, then posted this thread. As per your suggestion, I took the carb off the engine, checked and re-set to the specs in the instructions. I get where you're coming from though. The float is about dead parallel to the body. The venturis are on the opposite side of the wall from the fuel bowl, so the gas can not splash into them. If that were the case, it would stall from a coast as well as from acceleration. I'm going to take it apart and inspect everything again. I have to be missing something.
